What they say about us:
Great Day!
We had an amazing time on our private wine tour! Nik was a fantastic sommelier—knowledgeable, engaging, and incredibly informative throughout the day. We visited two local wineries and enjoyed private tastings at each, with a wonderful lunch at a charming little bistro in between.We ended up purchasing wine from both wineries, and One On The Hill coordinated the shipping back to the U.S. for us, which made the process so easy. Our wine arrived today, and we’re enjoying a glass as we write this!Thank you for helping make our winter trip to Italy such a memorable experience. We truly appreciate the care and attention that went into planning such a special day.
Happy day in Alba tasting wine
Had a great day with Pier visiting wineries around Alba. We visited a vineyard that produces Barbaresco in the morning and a vineyard that produces Barolo in the afternoon. Visits were relaxed and very informative. Pier was a great guide - very knowledgeable and made the day very enjoyable. Pier is also arranging for some wine to be shipped home to us. Happy to recommend this tour.
A little slice of heaven in Piedmont
This was our first experience signing up for a private tour of anything and we are so glad that we did. It was great. Our guide and driver, Riste, is a very knowledgeable and personable young man. Riste was very accommodating to my physical and dietary needs. We visited two family-owned vineyards and tasted many wonderful wines. At the first vineyard we visited, we met with the owner, Paolo, and he walked us through his wines, which were delicious. We did our tasting in what I think was Paolo’s backyard; it was everything anyone could want in a wine tasting in Piedmont. We then took a break for a magnificent lunch in the small town of Castiglione Falletto. It was probably the best meal I had in our 12 days in Italy.
Great experience in the Piedmont wine region
Our party of five had a fantastic day with Nik. Being a sommelier, he was very knowledgeable about wine in general, and being from the area, he was able to tell us a lot about the region. The two wineries we visited, Giuseppe Cortese and Teresa Soria, were excellent choices to demonstrate the best characteristics of the Barolo, Barbaresco, Nebbiolo and Moscato grapes grown in the region. A visit to a small-batch cheese maker for lunch was a wonderful addition to the day. The scenery was breathtaking, as well. It was an all-around great experience.
Just wonderful!
This is our first time in Piemonte and we bring home beautiful memories from this visit. Alessandro took very good care of us and shared very valuable knowledge about the region and its outstanding wines. We visited two family owned wineries and having just finished harvest, we could see up close a little of what it takes to make just wonderful wines. We will certainly be back!
Go for the wine, Stay for the company
We booked this experience expecting your basic wine tour. We got a whole lot more than that. Pierandrea was super approachable from the beginning even though he’s very knowledgeable. I felt comfortable asking questions that my little beginner’s curiousity had and at no time I felt silly for doing so. It is clear that Pierandrea’s passion for wine is just as strong as it is for story telling. We went to two different places that could not be more different, and this made the whole experience super exciting. Of course the wine is insanely delicious, but to see the love these makers have for the product, has made me appreciate a whole lot more when I enjoy a glass of wine. I would definitely recommend this experience to novices like me, but I bet than an expert would have just as great of an experience
From the Unesco World Heritage website:
"The vineyard landscapes of Langhe-Roero and Monferrato in Piedmont consist of a selection of five distinct winegrowing areas and a castle, whose names evoke profound and ancient expertise in the relationship between man and his environment. They reflect a slowly developed association between a diverse range of soils, grape varieties that are often native, and suitable winemaking processes. They offer panoramas of carefully cultivated hillsides, following ancient land divisions punctuated with buildings that lend structure to the visual space: hilltop villages, castles, Romanesque churches, farms, ciabots, cellars and storehouses for cellaring and for the commercial distribution of the wine in the small towns and larger towns on the margins of the vineyards. The serial property is outstanding for its HARMONY, and the BALANCE between the aesthetic qualities of its landscapes, the architectural and historical diversity of the built elements associated with the wine production activities and an authentic and ancient art of winemaking."
