Alessandria

In one of the most fascinating and sought-after areas of Monferrato, a UNESCO Heritage Site, stands this historic 17th-century winery with manorial villa perfectly integrated into the landscape at 450 m asl, in the municipality of Serralunga di Crea. The property is immersed in a wide natural curtain of seventeenth-century vineyards and enjoys a unique microclimate, ideal for the production of wines of the highest quality.

The historic heart of the property is the 17th-century cellar (1,788 m² – 19,239 ft²), now used as a barrique cellar, a fascinating and perfectly preserved environment that gives a strong identity value to the entire estate. Next to it is the modern production building developed on three levels:

• Basement: processing rooms with stainless steel tanks and state-of-the-art winemaking technology, warehouses, bottling room, storage rooms, dressing room with WC, four sheds and a technical room with independent external entrance;
• Ground floor: large and bright tasting room with fireplace, exposed beams and views of the vineyards, relaxation area also with fireplace and large windows that allow full enjoyment of the magnificent panorama, commercial area, kitchen, two offices, three toilets with hallway and three additional rooms. The level is completed by a storage room, a warehouse/tool store, a storage room and a porch.
• First floor: archive.

At the borders of Monferrato, in Piedmont, we find this beautiful noble castle with park. The finely restored building, offers a total of 10 bedrooms and 14 bathrooms and is currently a boutique hotel with congress hall and restaurant. The outdoor areas, roughly 6,900 sqm covered for the most part by a well-maintained park, are the ideal frame for al fresco events and ceremonies. In 1908 the building was awarded the certification of National monument for its great historic and artistic value.

The small medieval town offers all the necessary services (supermarkets, post offices, banks, pharmacies…) and other cites of Piedmont (and not only) are easily reached in just over an hour by car (Alessandria, Asti, Alba, Turin, Genoa, Milan…).

The closest airport is the one in Genoa (82km; 1h) but the terminals in Cuneo, Turin, Milan and Bergamo are equally convenient.
