What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors consistently praise Palazzo Robellini Enoteca Regionale for its exceptional selection of Piedmont wines and the outstanding expertise of oenologist Alessio. Many highlight the personalized tasting experiences and the surprising value for money. Some note that the focus is on bottle sales and curated tastings rather than casual glass service, and a few found the available wines to be on the younger side.
"Lovely place with a good local wine selectiom. But we expected an option for degustation. There were only 3 wines open to try and the man working at the store did not really try to accomodate us. You cannot just to there to drink a glass of wine, they did not sell anything to drink."

"This hole in the wall was such a great find! When we first walked in, I was overwhelmed- the selection is vast! But shopkeeper/oenologist Alessio came to the rescue with his incredible knowledge and his wonderful patience. When tasting, he listened to my feedback and found me a perfect wine. Not only that, but I was amazed that it was such a great value. If you find yourself in Acqui Terme and if you are looking for great wine, look no further."

"Not to be missed!! Allesio (Lo Sardo), an oenologist and our sommelier, was outstanding and welcoming. He also spoke excellent English, which we dearly appreciated, and is SUPER knowledgeable about the wines of Piemonte. The wines here are selected through a blind tasting where they must meet a high threshold to be offered at this 'enoteca.' We were offered a custom tasting, which for us included a sparkling rose from a local varietal, to a luscious Albarossa (2019) from wine maker La Lus. 6 Stars, and thank you Allesio for sharing your expertise and passion of regional wines with fantastic hospitality! We will be back!"
