Hilly expanses as far as the eye can see, ancient villages and perched castles, a succession of gentle slopes planted with vines whose rows draw rigorous geometries: these are the magnificent scenery of the Langhe, Roero and Monferrato, which has become a World Heritage Site. This territory between the provinces of Cuneo, Asti and Alessandria, and is a set of different environments where man and nature have been going to interact harmoniously for centuries. UNESCO decreed it in 2014: the wine-growing landscapes of Langhe, Monferrato and Roero are worthy of World Heritage recognition. Six specific areas, in 29 different municipalities, have been awarded for their history and the unbreakable bond between man and landscape; and it is from here that one can start to discover a richness that goes beyond the borders of Piedmont and becomes of global importance. Stunning places that UNESCO describes as “An outstanding living testimony to the historical tradition of grape growing, winemaking processes, and a social, rural context and economic fabric based on wine culture.” “The vineyards of Langhe, Roero and Monferrato,” reads the official motivation for the inscription, “constitute an outstanding example of man’s interaction with his natural environment. Here are the six zones, each carrying its own specificity:<\/p>\n<\/div>
The Langa del Barolo<\/strong> (municipalities of Barolo, Serralunga d’Alba, Castiglione Falletto, La Morra, Monforte d’Alba, Novello, and Diano d’Alba) enhances perhaps the most famous product of the Langhe :Barolo, which is rightfully called “The King of Wines and the Wine of Kings.” A visit to Barolo Castle to learn more is a must.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>2<\/span>\nGrinzane Cavour Castle<\/strong>, in the town of the same name, is home to the Piedmontese Regional Enoteca, among other things.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>3<\/span>\nThe hills of Barbaresco<\/strong> (municipalities of Barbaresco, Neive and Treiso), where Nebbiolo grapes are grown and Barbaresco, Barbera, Dolcetto and Nebbiolo are produced.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>4<\/span>\nNizza Monferrato and Barbera<\/strong> (Municipalities of Nizza Monferrato Agliano Terme, Moasca, S.

Some of the world’s finest wines are produced here, including Barolo, Barbaresco il Barbera, Nebbiolo, Moscato and Dolcetto. Among the most renowned villages is Barolo, which is nestled among the vineyards. In addition to wine, the village’s defining element is the castle of the Marchesi Falletti di Barolo, where there is the Wine Museum. A stone’s throw from the castle is the Corkscrew Museum. Barolo, in addition to being renowned for its food and wine characteristics, has also become very famous artistically. For several years it has been home to the important Collisioni Agri- Rock festival that has hosted famous international singers such as Elton john, Patty Smith, Bob Dylan, Jamiroquay , Neil Young, Deep Purple, Sting, Mark Knopfler and many others….. Among the villages to visit are definitely Monforte D’Alba and Neive both of which have joined the list of Italy’s Most Beautiful Villages Monforte d’Alba is a small, magnificent, commune situated in a dominant position with a beautiful view of the Alps and is part of the 11 Barolo-producing communes. In the historic core of Monforte, a natural amphitheater with perfect acoustics created from the natural morphological slope of the land was inaugurated in 1986 by the famous pianist Mieczys\u0142aw Horszowski. The natural amphitheater is stepped, and features a stage formed by a boundary wall and the portal to the Scarampi gardens. Since 1986 it has been the site of major concerts held by such illustrious artists as Paolo Conte, Massimo Ranieri, Jerry Mulligan, Vinicio Capossela and many others, and for the past few years has been home to the national Jazz music festival named Monfortinjazz. Among the hills of vineyards around Neive are the marked and equipped Dolcetto and Barbaresco trails, to be traveled on foot, by bicycle and on horseback. That Neive is part of the circuit of the “Most Beautiful Villages in Italy” may come as no surprise: just admire the medieval layout of the historic center, with its characteristic red-roofed houses overlooking the alleys, leaning against each other. Then, here rise other ancient vestiges of the past: the Clock Tower, the last vestige of the ancient castle, the baroque Archconfraternity of St. Michael with its precious wooden portal, the Cotto House with its fine 13th-century ceilings and fireplaces. Outside the town, then, along the Tinella stream, on the road to Mango, an artistic Romanesque bell tower rises among the countryside to announce the striking Church of Santa Maria del Piano. Obviously not to be outdone are the towns of Alba, home of the white truffle, rich in historical monuments to visit, or La Morra, a small village from whose belvedere you can admire the Langhe landscape, and again Dogliani, home of Dolcetto, and many others. In turn, the Langhe can be divided into two areas with different landscape characteristics: <\/p>\n\nThe Bassa Langa, to the north and west, which is characterized by a landscape and cultivation of mainly viticultural crops<\/li>\nthe Alta Langa, consisting of the Belbo and Bormida Valleys to the south and east, characterized mainly by hazelnut groves, forests and pastures. Here the landscape is more natural and preferred by lovers of Nature and peace. Recently, vineyards are also appearing in the Alta Langa area, planted to produce a fine sparkling wine (Alta Langa) that has little to envy of Champagne. The most representative municipalities of Alta Langa are Bossolasco, Murazzano, Cortemilia, Niella Belbo, Bergolo and many more.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>The Monferrato<\/h4><\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div> Its territory, almost exclusively hilly in nature, lies mainly within the provinces of Alessandria<\/a> and Asti<\/a> and extends to the foothills of theLigurian Apennines<\/a> on the border with the city of Genoa<\/a> and the province of Savona<\/a>. It is the home of wines such as Moscato d’Asti, and Barbera The plain of Alessandria (historic Marengo plain) divides it into Basso Monferrato (to the north) and Alto Monferrato (to the south higher above sea level, adjoining the Alta Langa and leaning against the Ligurian Apennines).\nA landscape of rolling hills with charming villages and small settlements dominated by castles. Asti<\/a> is a town worth a visit; the historic center reflects the medieval structure. Wine and truffles are also celebrated in Asti<\/strong>, but the must-see event is the palio, which takes place in September. Asti has many fascinating monuments, including the collegiate church of San Secondo<\/strong>, the grandiose terracotta cathedral, the medieval complex of the Rotonda di San Pietro, and the sumptuous Palazzo Mazzetti, home to the Museo Civico. Casale Monferrato, capital of the lower Monferrato, <\/strong>has the Po River on its side, which laps the city’s historic center, offering beautiful views. But also the unusually structured cathedral<\/strong>; the Paleologi castle; and the Bistolfi plaster gallery<\/strong>, with works by the local artist. In the hills surrounding Casale, we find Vignale Monferrato<\/strong>: you can visit the ancient manor house that now houses an important wine shop. Basso Monferrato also boasts one of the most beautiful castles in Italy, that of Camino<\/strong><\/a> Also worth mentioning is the castle of Uviglie<\/strong><\/a> near Rosignano Monferrato, from the top of which you can admire one of the most beautiful views in Piedmont. Of ancient origin, it has become a winery and has been able to revive the cultivation of fine DOC grape varieties such as Barbera del Monferrato, Grignolino del Monferrato Casalese, Monferrato Freisa and Piemonte Chardonnay. Straddling Piedmont and Liguria, it begins the Alto Monferrato<\/strong>, characterized by three areas: the Acquese, home to the capital of this section of Monferrato, Acqui<\/strong> <\/a>indeed, land of Moscato and Brachetto with numerous archaeological sites of Roman origin to visit; the Ovadese, with Ovada<\/strong> <\/a>with high hills dotted with medieval castles ( Rocca Grimalda<\/strong><\/a>, Orsara Bormida<\/strong><\/a>, Tagliolo<\/strong><\/a>, Trisobbio<\/strong><\/a>) A significant manor house is that of Montaldeo<\/strong> of the Marquises Doria, currently inhabited by a descendant of the great Andrea Doria; castle and village make one and soar among the surrounding hills: the highest castle in the area; finally that of Castelletto d’Orba. <\/strong>The village boasts the presence of as many as two manors: the ancestral Upper Tower and the Castle, surrounded by the charming village that preserves an ancient “ricetto” and the area of Novi<\/strong><\/a> with the castle of Tassarolo<\/strong> and S.

Casale Monferrato, capital of the lower Monferrato, <\/strong>has the Po River on its side, which laps the city’s historic center, offering beautiful views.

Some of the world’s finest wines are produced here, including Barolo, Barbaresco il Barbera, Nebbiolo, Moscato and Dolcetto. Among the most renowned villages is Barolo, which is nestled among the vineyards. In addition to wine, the village’s defining element is the castle of the Marchesi Falletti di Barolo, where there is the Wine Museum. A stone’s throw from the castle is the Corkscrew Museum. Barolo, in addition to being renowned for its food and wine characteristics, has also become very famous artistically. For several years it has been home to the important Collisioni Agri- Rock festival that has hosted famous international singers such as Elton john, Patty Smith, Bob Dylan, Jamiroquay , Neil Young, Deep Purple, Sting, Mark Knopfler and many others….. Among the villages to visit are definitely Monforte D’Alba and Neive both of which have joined the list of Italy’s Most Beautiful Villages Monforte d’Alba is a small, magnificent, commune situated in a dominant position with a beautiful view of the Alps and is part of the 11 Barolo-producing communes. In the historic core of Monforte, a natural amphitheater with perfect acoustics created from the natural morphological slope of the land was inaugurated in 1986 by the famous pianist Mieczys\u0142aw Horszowski. The natural amphitheater is stepped, and features a stage formed by a boundary wall and the portal to the Scarampi gardens. Since 1986 it has been the site of major concerts held by such illustrious artists as Paolo Conte, Massimo Ranieri, Jerry Mulligan, Vinicio Capossela and many others, and for the past few years has been home to the national Jazz music festival named Monfortinjazz. Among the hills of vineyards around Neive are the marked and equipped Dolcetto and Barbaresco trails, to be traveled on foot, by bicycle and on horseback. That Neive is part of the circuit of the “Most Beautiful Villages in Italy” may come as no surprise: just admire the medieval layout of the historic center, with its characteristic red-roofed houses overlooking the alleys, leaning against each other. Then, here rise other ancient vestiges of the past: the Clock Tower, the last vestige of the ancient castle, the baroque Archconfraternity of St. Michael with its precious wooden portal, the Cotto House with its fine 13th-century ceilings and fireplaces. Outside the town, then, along the Tinella stream, on the road to Mango, an artistic Romanesque bell tower rises among the countryside to announce the striking Church of Santa Maria del Piano. Obviously not to be outdone are the towns of Alba, home of the white truffle, rich in historical monuments to visit, or La Morra, a small village from whose belvedere you can admire the Langhe landscape, and again Dogliani, home of Dolcetto, and many others. In turn, the Langhe can be divided into two areas with different landscape characteristics: <\/p>\n\nThe Bassa Langa, to the north and west, which is characterized by a landscape and cultivation of mainly viticultural crops<\/li>\nthe Alta Langa, consisting of the Belbo and Bormida Valleys to the south and east, characterized mainly by hazelnut groves, forests and pastures. Here the landscape is more natural and preferred by lovers of Nature and peace. Recently, vineyards are also appearing in the Alta Langa area, planted to produce a fine sparkling wine (Alta Langa) that has little to envy of Champagne. The most representative municipalities of Alta Langa are Bossolasco, Murazzano, Cortemilia, Niella Belbo, Bergolo and many more.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>The Monferrato<\/h4><\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div> Its territory, almost exclusively hilly in nature, lies mainly within the provinces of Alessandria<\/a> and Asti<\/a> and extends to the foothills of theLigurian Apennines<\/a> on the border with the city of Genoa<\/a> and the province of Savona<\/a>.
