DISCOVER THE MONFERRATO UNESCO
Il Monferrato is one of the most beautiful Italian places, famous for its biodiversity and the rolling hills that frame the panorama. Its viticultural landscapes were recognized by Unesco in 2014 as cultural elements of exceptional beauty, strong in the historical tradition of the cultivation of the vine and the “culture of wine”. The area of Piedmont where Margara is located is part of the so-called “Monferrato degli infernot”, a portion of the territory characterized by the presence of historical vernacular structures excavated in the “Pietra da Cantone” formerly used for the conservation of wines.
An area rich in history, culture and food and wine traditions famous all over the world: your holiday in Margara could not be in a better place.
