Villages of Monferrato

Monferrato covers the hills of the provinces of Asti and Alessandria, from the Po down towards the Apennines, with a village on almost every ridge. Parts of it, around Canelli and Nizza and in the infernot villages near Casale, are UNESCO-listed vineyard landscape. Each town page has what to see, where to eat and drink, the wineries and what's on.
