This is a wine tour to discover the real Monferrato: one of the most evocative areas of Piedmont, rich in history and great wines.
The first stop will be a small organic cellar in the area where you will have the opportunity to meet the producer who will guide you in the discovery of his cellar, its wines and its history.
After the first visit, I will take you to a restaurant in the area that I have selected where you can discover typical dishes of the renowned Piedmontese gastronomy.
After a relaxing lunch break we will leave for another family winery where you will taste other important native wines such as Barbera, Moscato, Freisa, Grignolino.
Throughout the journey we will be able to travel along panoramic roads and I will show you some of the most beautiful and fascinating corners of Monferrato.
Furthermore, there will be time to introduce you to the main productions of the region, I will tell you about the main denominations and the various native and historical vines grown here.

5.00Using Viator is a great tool to find wonderful guides, I have been using it for the past few years. We have never been to this region in Italy and to our delight we had the most wonderful guide, his name is Nicola. He was born in the area of Austin and is a sommelier.He’s very knowledgeable and passionate about his industry and takes good care of the local wine makers, both small and large. He came to our hotel, picked us up and provided us with much information, not just wine related. He stayed with us a whole entire day and has a lot of knowledge of food and wine. At the end of our tour, he went out of his way to show us downtown Asti and the cathedral which was not part of our tour. I would recommend this tour to anyone who is knowledgeable in wine or a beginner. The two wineries he picked were wonderful.
A truly memorable experience!

5.00Highly recommend this wonderful trip and experience with Nik to gain a much better understanding, appreciation and taste for the wines of Monferrato. He is very knowledgeable and well connected with the local industry and allowed us to places we’d not have been able to find ourselves. From being in the wine cellar beneath the former summer home of the Italian king in the 1800s, or on a hill by a small ancient country church overlooking the miles of vineyards, this tour had it all. Our guide knew so much about not just wine but the history of the area and the picturesque villages that make it all up. Our lunch stop was very memorable as well, plenty of time for a leisurely enjoyment of delicious food and wine in a peaceful Italian village in the countryside. Can’t say enough wonderful things about Nik and his tour, definitely don’t pass this up if you’d love a day immersed in the history and wine of this beautiful Piedmont region!

5.00I am so glad that I went on this tour during my time in Piemonte. Niccolo was awesome guide who showed me the best of what the Monferrato Valley has to offer with its exquisite wineries, gorgeous villages, and breathtaking Alpine scenery. Not only did I try amazing wine but tasty fresh cheese and homemade salami, as well. I will always remember this spectacular experience.
