The warmth of home in a medieval village

Rocca Grimalda, just 45 minutes from the city of Genoa, preserves the charm of the villages of Lower Monferrato, amid vine-covered hills, woods and landscapes that invite you to slow down. It is a place where peaceful moments alternate with days full of experiences, following the rhythm of the seasons and the pleasure of discovery. Wine culture offers many ways to experience the area: cellar visits, tastings of Ovada DOCG wines and meetings with producers reveal the identity of these hills. Among the most representative events, Ovada Revolution offers an itinerary through the wineries, pairing wines with local gastronomic specialities. In Ovada, the Vi.Ta. event – Wine and Truffles – celebrates the flavours of autumn with tastings, traditional products and a market exhibition dedicated to truffles. For culture lovers, Rocca Grimalda Castle offers visits by reservation through its gardens, rooms and cellars, while the Mask Museum recounts the traditions of the village and the Lachera. The Festa della Peirbuieira is another opportunity to meet the community and discover one of its most distinctive recipes. Walks through the vineyards, excursions in the hills and itineraries exploring the villages of the Ovada area complete the leisure opportunities. This is a land to experience unhurriedly, amid nature, culture and conviviality, capable of making every stay different.
