The four of us booked this tour with Meet Piemonte. They sent us the addresses of the two wineries which we would have never found on our own and a list of things to see in the area. Gorgeous cellars, both owners where so personable and treated us like family. Lunch was a starter, ravioli and dessert, not a huge meal but enough to carry on until dinner and great pairing with the wines of the first winery. We had some time in between wineries so we went to one of the big benches they recommend us and we took photos and enjoy some sunshine. This region is stunning and we will come back.

If you visit the area of Langhe, you love wine and if you love wine, you want to taste the wine. One thing to do: book One On The Hill. It is an amazing experience. Pierandrea is a good expert in wine and he drives you around (in his Tesla) to the nice vineyards to taste. He knows a lot about the region, the wine, the food to combine,... It's a nice man to have around, with a lot of knowledge. He has a good relationship with the vineyards and helps you on the spot with which wines to choose on an honest and respectful way. We are very glad we have met him, a friendship and expert to hold on to learn more about the wine and of all to buy local if we go on holiday :-). If you become a member of his Wine Club, you receive wines during the year, which is a wonderful concept. One thing on the side, but for our as parents so important. We have a 2 year old son, Luca, so we were doubting by doing the trip, but Pierandrea made a whole new program to adapt to our son, so big thank you for that. Bottom line: just do it!
