A must visit.  Fantastic food - a nice blend classic and modern Piedmont cooking. Service is professional but friendly.  The wine list is ridiculously large but if you’re not sure what to pick, ask Giampiero and he will for sure introduce you to something amazing from a local vineyard.  We’ve been coming for a number of years and have yet to be disappointed.

Impressive wine list/cellar and nice format where the menu is a la carte, just enough options to choose from (which are all delicious) to enjoy with some bottles of wine of the impressive wine cellar !
