Cascina Ghitin Relais is located in Variglie, a small area on the outskirts of Asti, nestled in the hills of the Monferrato region. This part of Piedmont serves as a true crossroads among Monferrato, Langhe, and Roero, regions recognized by UNESCO for their unique wine-producing landscapes.
The village is famous for cultivating the rare and fragrant lemon peach and is situated along the ancient route that connected Asti to Alba, ensuring quick access to some of the most picturesque spots in the area. In just a few minutes, one can reach Asti, known for its medieval historic center and renowned events like the Palio, as well as Alba, the capital of white truffles and esteemed Piedmontese wines. Additionally, nearby cities such as Alessandria, Turin, Genoa, and Milan make the region perfect for cultural and culinary excursions.
The surrounding landscape is dotted with castles, historic villages, infernot (wine cellars carved into the rock), and underground cathedrals, along with wineries where visitors can sample Barbera, Nebbiolo, Moscato, and other local specialties. Throughout the year, the hills present different spectacles: from blooming vineyards in spring to the vibrant hues of autumn during the grape harvest, and the serene winter that offers breathtaking views. Therefore, Variglie serves as an ideal starting point to experience the most authentic Piedmont, rich in nature, history, art, and high-level gastronomy.
