Costigliole
d'Asti.

Wine Tasting

Costigliole d’Asti lies in the heart of the Monferrato wine hills, surrounded by Barbera and Moscato vineyards. The village is dominated by a large medieval castle that now hosts wine events and exhibitions. Life here follows agricultural rhythms, with harvest season shaping daily activity. Small wineries, family-run trattorias, and local food fairs define the area. Rolling hills, quiet roads, and walking paths connect Costigliole to nearby villages and cellars rather than major tourist centers.
