About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- T102IWrons0 contributionsFilled with fantastic fun, food, wine & experiencesHighly recommend …just completed multiple nights of once in a life time memories…everyone enjoyed the food, wine, people & eventsWritten 8 January 2024
- Lea W0 contributionsWell-organized private wine tour in the Langhe regionAmazing tour with One on the Hill and our guide Riste! He picked us up at our hotel in an electric car and off we went. The company selected two family-run wineries for us to visit, where we learned a lot and tried many wines. Neither place pushed us to purchase anything, which we appreciated (though we did end up buying a couple of bottles at each place). We also enjoyed lunch in between the two stops at a nice restaurant in Alba - Riste let us have lunch privately and then picked us up after. Everything was very well organized and professional - and Riste was as well. It was expensive, but probably our favorite experience in the Langhe region.Written 18 November 2023
- acmes0 contributionsBrilliant adventure in the woodsThe truffle hunting tour with Marta, Frederica, and Bella was the highlight of a 5star trip in northern Italy. Marta has love for her partner, Bella a 6 month old puppy who is clearly a prodigy. She found 6-7 black truffles and one white in short order. Marta explained how to carefully dig for them in order to protect the trees and roots. Dress properly for this kind of experience as you’ll be running through the forest after the dog—long pants and sturdy shoes.Written 21 October 2023

- StuartWilson10 contributionsGreat wine tour of Barolo!Nicola was amazing and picked us up at the train station in Alba! He whisked us off to Vietti where we had an amazing tour. Then to a fantastic restaurant in Alba and our final winery at Giuseppe Cortese. He even dropped us off at our Airbnb in Govone.Written 7 October 2022
- wanderingmeg0 contributionsJust what we were looking for!We spent a lovely day with Pier, driving through the Langhe wine region, learning about and tasting Barbaresco and Barolo wines. Pier is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about this wine region and all it has to offer. He drove us safely and comfortably in his Tesla, and conversation was easy. We really enjoyed the recommended restaurant for lunch in Alba. And Pier even made us reservations for lunch and a tasting for the following day. We enjoyed it so much we joined his wine club, which is very progressive for this fairly traditional area. Would definitely recommend this to anyone who likes wine and would like to learn more.Written 18 July 2021
- VanessaM090 contributionsAmazing experienceIf 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!Written 12 August 2020

- Meesh5100 contributionsAn Intimate View of the Langhe Wine RegionWe had such an incredible day wine tasting with Pier - growing up in CA and as a wine lover, you know that the best wineries are the ones that locals point you to, not necessarily the ones you'll find on your own even with mad internet research skillz. Needless to say it was clear Pier had a genuine relationship with the wineries we visited, and a great understanding of the Langhe wine region. We had great conversation throughout the day getting to know him more, and discuss the differences between the Barbera, Nebbiolo, Barbaresco and Barolo wines we tasted. It feels like we walked away from the experience a little bit richer, both in wine bottles and friendship. Must do if you're in the Piemonte area.Written 10 March 2020
- derek919890 contributionsExcellent!One on the Hill was a fantastic & memorable experience! Pierandrea is a very personable and knowledgable guide - and introduced us to the wines & winemakers of the Piedmont region in a way that felt authentic and personalized. Highly recommend to anyone visiting the region & looking to learn about and taste delicious wine.Written 11 November 2019
- ekillians0 contributionsDefinitely worth our investment and looking forward to rehiring One On The Hill.We were unsure if hiring a private guide was right for us but boy are we REALLY glad we toured with Nicola from One On The Hill. (We met Pier, and he was super nice too). Going around with someone who knows the vineyards, the area, and is a private driver for the day made our experience incredibly special and valuable. We were able to see private areas of the vineyards and cellars not typically available. We left with a really great understanding of the Barolo and Barbaresco areas so that we can make more educated wine purchasing decisions on our own. Lastly, we just had a really enjoyable day. Nicola went the extra mile to ensure our two days with him were nothing short of exceptional. Thank you One On The Hill!Written 2 November 2019

Spending the day with him gave us an experience we could not have had on our own. Highly recommend!Written 17 October 2019
- DonnaL5400 contributionsPremier Concierge Service!If you are an independent traveler without a guide, it is difficult to find the small Piedmont wine producers making quality wine who will have the time, facilities, and English speaking staff to offer you an in-depth wine tasting experience. Before we discovered Pier and his concierge service, we ended up at wineries doing commercialized tastings along with tour buses full of people. Pier made appointments for us for private tastings at small wineries in both the Barolo and Barbaresco areas. We were expected and warmly welcomed, and offered tastings of the full range of wines made by that producer (usually at least 8 different wines, including highly coveted reserve bottlings). He made lunch reservations for us at unique, excellent restaurants where again we were welcomed as special guests. (And we were traveling with our 6-year old grandson which was not a problem at all; the wineries welcomed him with juice and grissini.). Pier’s extensive knowledge of and relationships with the many local producers allows him to tailor the day to your specific wants and interests. And he also offers a wine club which allows you to continue experiencing the high quality wines from small local producers that you could never find in the U.S. This concierge service is worth every penny, and I would never go again to a wine region without it, even though I have traveled in Italy on my own many times! (And we joined the wine club.)Written 12 October 2019

My wife and I are very knowledgeable wine people. Riste picked us up at our hotel and we had 2 tastings. The first was very technical in Barolo but connected a lot of dots in this difficult to understand region. We enjoyed meeting this very passionate farmer, wine maker and owner. Next was lunch at a perfect location on a balcony overlooking the Cannubi hills. The last tasting in Barbaresco was all about the wine made with a special love and finesse that made it stand out from most other tastings. The owner spent a few hours with us as more and more bottles kept appearing. Resting was a great driver, very knowledgeable and made us feel like long time friends. A remarkable day in a remarkable place. Bravo!

I celebrated my 60th birthday together with my family by taking the one-day Langhe wine tour in Barolo and Barbaresco. It turned out to be an unforgettable experience for all of us (a total of seven people, ages 19 to 60). Our guide Marfa was extremely knowledgeable about the wines and food of the region and a very passionate ambassador of Piemonte. She went the extra mile to make us all feel comfortable and involved, and willingly answered all the questions we asked during the course of the day. Together with Marfa, we visited two small wineries and learned a lot from the people we met there. The tastings were well planned and we felt that everybody really took their time to guide is through each wine and to explain the philosophy and craftsmanship behind them. I cannot think of a better way to celebrate a birthday and strongly recommend this activity to anyone with a serious interest in the great wines of Piemonte.

Our private wine tour with Marfa was wonderful! Her knowledge and interest in winemaking was evident from all the info she shared with us. She took us to 2 wineries, where we learned an incredible amount about winemaking from the very nice and knowledgeable owners, who were quite generous with the wine tasting. An added treat was the restaurant with a spectacular view that Marfa chose for our lunch, where we were introduced to some local specialities.
Overall, the tour was very worthwhile, especially with Marfa as a guide.

We had an amazing day of visiting wineries and exploring new wines with Nic, our guide. He customized our trip according to our interests and picked an interesting mix of wineries to visit. He was very knowledgeable and also very pleasant to be with. We had a great time and also learned a lot. Nic also went above and beyond to assist us with the shipping of wines that we purchased. This was a highlight of our trip. Highly recommended!

Excellent wine tour in the Langhe. Our Somm for the day Nik downloaded lots of info that helped set the scene for a great day . However he made sure the day was focussed on the 3 family wineries we visited and let the families and their wines be the stars. The homemade lunch at one of the wineries was a nice surprise. Amazing local ingredients. But hearing the families passion and stories as well as getting a much deeper understanding of the wines of the region made this a unique experience that you just can’t get following the normal tourist path. The team at One on the hill ensured a rare occurrence of beating expectations. If you are going to Langhe and love wine, contact these guys!!

We had a wonderful day of tasting great and a variety wines with Nicola. He was very informative, friendly, knowledgeable and fun. My family and I had a great time learning about this wine region and meeting the owners and winemakers. It was fabulous and I would highly recommend this experience to anyone who visits this area. We also had a great lunch in the middle of the day. The views are stunning.
Thank you Nicola and your team.

Pier gave us a great introduction to the Borolo and Barbaresco regions. His English is superb. We visited one small winery in Barbaresco in the morning, had a delicious lunch in Alba, then visited another small winery in Borolo in the afternoon. At each winery, we met with a family member/owner who spent a great deal of time explaining their wines, the special geography of the area, and the process they use to produce the wines.

Great education about the region and overall agenda for a tour. Really enjoyed time with our guide Nicola, and the two places we visited (especially Fabio at Castello di Verduno) were great for comparing and contrasting. Nice and private setup to have great conversation, got a great sense of the area.

We had a spectacular time today on a private tour with Nicola. He was extremely informative and very personable. We had asked for a tour just focused on white wine and that is exactly what we got. We especially enjoyed the very personal experience at Pietro Rinaldi. We would highly recommend this type of personalized tour!
