The Monferrato wine region, beautifully situated in the Asti and Alessandria provinces, is (according to some) Italy’s best kept secret. This area of red and sparkling wines is wonderfully sheltered from mass tourism. Casa Monteverdi is nestled between the hills of Castelnuovo Calcea and Vinchio. In these little villages you can find a bakery, a café, a small shop, a couple of charming restaurants, some small and beautiful churches, houses and farms. The locals are friendly and hospitable and love welcoming guests to their wine tastings accompanied by local delicacies. The town of Nizza Monferrato is only a 20-minute bicycle ride and offers lots of restaurants, shops, supermarkets, farmer’s markets and outdoor patios. At a half-hour’s drive you’ll find yourself in the historic centre of Asti or the town of Alba, known for Nutella and the renowned White Truffle Fair. Within 1,5hrs you’re in the centre of cultural cities such as Turin, Genova and Milan. Casa Monteverdi is a perfect base for your city trips and cultural excursions. The following is a quick introduction to everything the region has to offer.
