Striking out from Turin with a reluctant skier.

I have found some great flights to Turin and want to head towards the Cervinia area by train for a short ski trip. I also want entice my long suffering wife who doesn't really ski with me. The plan is to sell a cute mountain getaway town. I have been to Cervinia before and loved it but the town is not great for non skiing day trippers. Is there a town with a better day scene going on for an occasional non skier that I can hit by train from Turin.
All suggestions welcome.
Many Thanks
Barry

Not been myself (yet) but Aosta is a proper old and interesting town in the valley, with gondola access direct into the Pila ski area?

Another possible option which is a lot closer to Turin would be Sauze d'Oulz. It is only about an hour by road from Turin and I believe there is a train service that runs quite close. It is a decent size village.
