Guided tours are free of charge. Drinks are charged.

A Walk in the Park

At the exit of the Cantina of the Barriques, you will find a path that leads you into the Park of Wonders. Don’t hesitate and feed it: a ten-minute walk among the fruit trees and the Park’s amusing inhabitants (Hatters, large white rabbits, playing cards that speak in a foreign language, and strange smiling cats) will take you on the Terrace of Borgo Roccanivo, where lots of news and surprises await you!

Are you uncomfortable with the idea of tackling the walk in the park? No problem. Indoor park mobility is provided free of charge by Audi Zentrum Alessandria!

Moment of Happiness @Cantine Aperte

What could be better than a cocktail on a warm late spring day? If then the cocktails are based on Amaro Riserva Convento di S.Giovanni and prepared by Marco Fara, you can’t help but be happy!

At Cantine Aperte drinking a cocktail has another meaning: for every cocktail purchased, one euro will be donated to Piccolo Cottolengo in Tortona, to help children living with disabilities and disabling illnesses.

Not just Grappa

Yes! To brighten your Sunday afternoon we will not be the only ones: whether you are in the mood for a glass of wine from Serra Domenico or Cordero San Giorgio, or whether you prefer a very freshly squeezed apple juice from Poderi Sartoris on the Terrace of Borgo Roccanivo you will find something to quench your thirst! Do you prefer a good cup of coffee instead? Taste Lavazza‘s Reserva de Tierra Selection!

In addition, a corner will stand out where Italian cigar tastings will be offered reserved for overage smokers only in collaboration with the club “Tuscan Friends.”

Wine and coffee drinks are charged.

Music & Arts

Not only a day of tastings: there is also room for art!
