Your gateway
to authentic
Piedmont.

Whether you're after a tranquil retreat or a culinary adventure, Nocciolina invites you to experience the best of Alta Langa. We'll connect you with local producers and enrich your stay with tastings and experiences.

Alta Langa, the tip of the Langhe, is quieter than its more famous neighbour. Rolling hills dotted with vineyards, hazelnut groves and medieval castles. The gastronomy is built around truffles, hazelnuts, and Dolcetto and Barbera wines, with farm-to-table practices at local trattorie.

05 - Our story

Casaway, your home, away.

"We found this stone house in August 2020, during the first summer after lockdown, and renovated it over two years from two hours away."

  • Found on a drive through Alta Langa, above Barolo. The agent picked up on the first ring.
  • Renovation begins. Roof, floors, bathrooms. Barebones only.
  • The attached field becomes an outdoor kitchen. The patio takes shape under the pergola.
  • A proper deck and pool. The family packs for San Diego.
  • Nocciolina opens to guests. The hazelnut trees come back into the garden.
