Review: We visited Cuor di Nocciola with a group of Dutch friends in May 2024. We all thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We received a warm welcome from Barbara who had organized a delicious tasting. Afterwards, owner Marco took us on a leisurely walk through the stunning hazelnut tree groves. The family also recommended the restaurant next door Da Maurizio. We did not have time, but hope to eat there next time!
