Cellar Tour and Wine Tasting at Cantina Castello di Uviglie in Monferrato
Here is what's in store for you
At Castello di Uviglie, overlooking the vineyards of Rosignano Monferrato, a UNESCO World Heritage site, your visit is personally led by Davide or Lucia, the estate's hospitality managers. They will guide you first through the production cellar, explaining how the region's Barbera and Grignolino wines are made by the Bonzano family.
The tour continues into the underground rooms carved from Pietra da Cantoni, a local pale stone that keeps the historic cellar at a constant 12°C and 90% humidity. It's here that the Le Cave Metodo Classico ages on its lees for years. After the tour, you'll take a seat for the tasting in the wine shop or, weather permitting, on the outdoor terrace facing the vineyards.
You will taste four wines, starting with a Metodo Classico from the Le Cave line, followed by a still white, a young red, and a wood-aged Barbera del Monferrato Superiore. The selection is flexible; if you prefer reds, your host will adjust the pouring to match your taste. The tasting is relaxed, as the technical details are covered during the cellar walk.
If you choose the add-on, your wines will be paired with a platter of seasonal local cheeses and cured meats from Monferrato, such as Robiola di Roccaverano DOP and salami like the Barbera-laced Muletta.

Tasting at the castle
Improve the organization of the various bookings because our reservation through the website was for the day before the one we set. Luckily there were no problems thanks to the kindness of the staff.
