Experiences

A subdivision of Places. Days built around a single good idea, and the people who have done it for decades.

Heli-skiing above Livigno
Mountain · Italy

Heli-skiing, Livigno

Four drops before lunch with a guide who reads the snowpack like a ledger.

Sailing in northern waters
Sea · Norway

Lofoten under canvas

Four days on a 62-foot sloop, routed by weather and appetite alone.

A 911 on the Stelvio Pass
Road · Italy

The Stelvio at dawn

Leave Bormio by six and the pass road is near empty. Coffee at the summit.

Harvest in Napa Valley
Table · California

A harvest dinner in the rows

One long table, the picking crew as guests of honour, the vintage poured first.

Gstaad in winter
Mountain · Switzerland

Glacier 3000, first car up

Take the first cable car of the day and breakfast at 3,000 metres, before the slopes fill.

A hotel dining room in South Tyrol
Table · Italy

The farm table, South Tyrol

Dinner in a working farmhouse kitchen. Six seats, one menu, no substitutions.

Megève under snow
Mountain · France

Megève, skied slowly

Tree-lined pistes, lunch at a farm restaurant on the mountain, and no queue worth the name from Tuesday to Thursday.

The coast at Nice from above
Road · France

The three corniches

Nice to Monaco by the Grande Corniche at dawn, Èze for coffee, and back along the Basse Corniche after lunch. One coastline, three altitudes.

The vineyards of Saint-Émilion
Table · France

Harvest week, Saint-Émilion

Five days between the rows and the chai, ending at the long table the picking team sets for itself on the last evening.
