Moncalvo — Borgo del Monferrato

Piedmont

Moncalvo served for a period as a capital of the Gonzaga-ruled Monferrato duchy, its hilltop position giving a natural belvedere over the rolling vineyard country that surrounds it on all sides. The old-town lanes are quiet and largely level, a calm counterpart to the busier Langhe wine towns further south.
