antica trattoria In Pianello val tidone

27/01/2026: Welcoming atmosphere, excellent wine list, good food with tasty dishes but small portions, a bit pricey in my opinion...

09/01/2026: Luckily, I discovered this wine shop. Compared to other wine shops and wine bars in Piacenza, I can say without a doubt that it's the best. I'd say Andrea is the ultimate local wine expert. I particularly appreciated his endless knowledge of France and Northern Italy. It's clear he has a passion to spare. As for the wine shop, it's become my go-to wine shop. The selection is vast and includes both famous and renowned labels as well as high-quality niche labels. I've personally purchased both premium and standard bottles: the prices are very competitive, comparable to what you'd find online. As for the wine bar, I highly recommend this place for short aperitifs/aperitif dinners (the place closes at 10 pm). The atmosphere is relaxed and perfect for a leisurely tasting. Excellent service, complete with explanations of the wines and their origins. As for the food, I highly recommend the Fassona tartare, Culatello, and Vitello tonnato: excellent quality ingredients, superb preparation, and market-leading prices. The only advice I can offer for now, considering myself only an amateur wine enthusiast, is to explore the already excellent selection of Super Tuscan wines (I realize these aren't wines for everyday use 😁). That said, kudos to Andrea for continuing to offer a gem in Piacenza!
