The so called “Monferrato” is the hill region on the south side of the “Po” river, among the “Alessandria” and “Asti” districts. It develops to the “Cuneo” district becoming the so called “Langhe” and “Roero” hills, lands of noble and distinguished agri-cultural traditions.
Its peaks reach the 500-700 m asl and have the same geological origins than the Alps: they raised from the sea bed some ten millions of years ago, as confirmed by the marine fossils you can find in the countryside even today.
