From vineyard to skincare: a project that transforms winemaking by-products into new resources for natural cosmetics

19 October 2026/in TERRITORY, VINEYARDS AND CELLAR /by Marco Mussini

At Tenuta Montemagno, sustainability also means reducing waste and making the most of everything that comes from the vineyard.

This vision is at the heart of VIGNEUL, the skincare line developed from by-products of the estate’s biodynamic winemaking process. Through upcycling, materials left over after wine production are recovered and transformed into active ingredients for skincare.

It is a tangible example of circular economy applied to the wine sector, bringing together scientific research, cosmetic innovation and the responsible use of resources.

From winemaking to cosmetics

At the core of the project is the patented Molecular Bioliquefaction® technology, which makes it possible to enhance the plant-based components found in winemaking by-products and make them suitable for cosmetic use.

The principle is simple: extending the life cycle of a raw material by giving it a new purpose, so that its value does not end with wine production.

In this way, the winemaking heritage of Monferrato connects with a different field, natural cosmetics, through an approach to sustainability that goes beyond reducing environmental impact and also focuses on rethinking the potential of existing resources.

UVA-LIFT and the 2026 Excellence Award

In 2026, UVA-LIFT Serum with Grape Extract received the Excellence Award at the European Natural Beauty Awards, an international recognition dedicated to natural cosmetic products that stand out for quality, innovation, efficacy and commitment to sustainability.

Formulated with 99.8% ingredients of natural origin, the serum is one of the clearest expressions of this philosophy.

The significance of the award lies above all in the international context in which the product is assessed, with particular attention to quality, innovation, efficacy and sustainability.

It is therefore more than a recognition of the formulation itself: it also acknowledges a broader approach that brings together cosmetic research and a more conscious use of resources.

A different way of looking at the vineyard

VIGNEUL shows how winemaking can generate value beyond the cellar.

The same raw material from which wine is produced can continue its life cycle in different forms, opening up new applications and creating a connection between agriculture, research and skincare.

This perspective broadens the meaning of sustainability and, starting from the vineyards of Tenuta Montemagno, offers a contemporary way of interpreting the resources of Monferrato: not only preserving and respecting them, but fully understanding their potential.

White truffle in Monferrato: the star of autumn

9 October 2026/in RELAIS, TERRITORY /by Marco Mussini

There are aromas that announce a season even before the calendar does. In Monferrato, that of the white truffle is among the most distinctive.

Tuber magnatum Pico is one of the most prized ingredients in Piedmontese cuisine. It grows naturally underground, in symbiosis with the roots of specific tree species, and it is precisely the relationship with the soil, humidity and surrounding environment that gives it its unique character and intense aroma.

Its search is entrusted to the trifolau and his dog, protagonists of an ancient practice based on experience, knowledge of the woods and respect for nature’s rhythms. It is no coincidence that truffle hunting and extraction in Italy have been recognised by UNESCO as Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.

White Truffle season coincides with autumn, when the vineyards change colour, the woods take on deeper tones and the kitchen returns to celebrating the ingredients and recipes of tradition.

His majesty the Alba white truffle at Tenuta Montemagno

It is during this season that Tenuta Montemagno presents “His majesty the Alba white truffle”, a two-day stay with a gourmet dinner designed to continue the story of the truffle at the table.

The white truffle becomes the guiding thread of a gastronomic dinner that explores some of the most representative flavours of Piedmontese cuisine: from Fassona beef tartare to egg tagliolini or Monferrato-style agnolotti, through to pan-fried egg, each dish enhanced with 5 g of Alba white truffle per person.

A selection of wines from the estate accompanies the experience, chosen to create a natural dialogue between cuisine and territory.

A way to experience White Truffle not simply as an ingredient, but as an expression of Piedmontese autumn and the landscape of Monferrato.

An ingredient best treated with simplicity

Part of the fascination of White Truffle lies in its ability to transform the simplest dishes with very little. Just a few thin shavings, added at the last moment, are enough to release its intense and unmistakable aroma.

For this reason, it is traditionally paired with delicate preparations that enhance its fragrance without overpowering it: eggs, fresh pasta, butter, cheeses and meats provide the ideal base, allowing the truffle to remain the true protagonist. These are the very flavours that inspired the dinner dedicated to the Alba white truffle, included in the “His majesty the Alba white truffle” package.

It is precisely this simplicity that makes it one of the most fascinating ingredients in Piedmontese cuisine. At Tenuta Montemagno, guests are invited to discover it at its most authentic, surrounded by the flavours of the region, the estate’s wines and the landscape of Monferrato.

Merenda sinoira at Tenuta Montemagno

29 September 2026/in RELAIS, TERRITORY /by Marco Mussini

A Piedmontese tradition to rediscover among vineyards, local flavours and the timeless charm of the Monferrato hills.

Some traditions tell the story of a place better than words ever could. Merenda sinoira is one of them: a convivial ritual deeply rooted in Piedmont, born in the countryside as a moment of pause at the end of the working day.

In the late afternoon, people would gather around the table with whatever the kitchen had to offer: bread, cured meats, cheeses, frittatas, vegetables, carpione specialities and, of course, wine. Simple yet substantial dishes, shared informally and enjoyed slowly, often until evening.

More generous than a snack and more spontaneous than dinner, merenda sinoira still preserves the pleasure of coming together and, in many ways, anticipates the spirit of the Piedmontese aperitivo.

The journey begins aboard a 1980s Fiat Panda

At Tenuta Montemagno, merenda sinoira takes on a character all its own.

Before reaching the table, the experience begins on the roads of Monferrato Astigiano, aboard a 1980s Fiat Panda tied to the family’s history and now reimagined to accompany guests through the hills surrounding the estate. More than a vintage car, it is a fragment of memory brought back to life among vineyards, rows of vines and views over Montemagno.

Accompanied by an expert guide, the journey unfolds at a leisurely pace, allowing the scents, colours and quiet of the countryside to lead naturally towards the merenda sinoira.

The route eventually reaches the vineyards, where a table is set beneath the shade of a tree, in a secluded corner immersed in nature.

Here, the tradition comes to life through a selection of Piedmontese flavours: local cured meats and cheeses, friciulin, Russian salad, carpione specialities and freshly baked focaccia, accompanied by three glasses of Tenuta Montemagno wines per person, selected to enhance the flavours and create a direct connection with the surrounding vineyards.

A moment to enjoy without rushing, which at sunset can naturally turn into an aperitivo and offer, through food, landscape and conviviality, one of the most authentic ways to experience Monferrato.

Harvest 2026 at Tenuta Montemagno

29 September 2026/in VINEYARDS AND CELLAR, WINES /by Marco Mussini

From climate to harvest, the story of a vintage taking shape among the vineyards of Tenuta Montemagno.

Harvest is the moment when an entire year of work begins to take shape. Picking the grapes, however, is only the final stage of months of observation, decisions and continuous adjustments, during which every choice accompanies the development of the vines and the grapes.

Each vintage follows its own rhythm, shaped by climate, terroir and the characteristics of the individual grape varieties. In 2026, this was particularly evident, requiring constant attention and a careful reading of what was happening in the vineyard.

Harvest 2026: an exceptional summer

The summer just ended was the hottest in Italy since 1950, surpassing the previous record set in 2003. According to analyses by the CNR, several waves of African heat affected the country from June through early September.

In the Monferrato Astigiano, where the vineyards of Tenuta Montemagno are located, prolonged heat and reduced water availability accompanied the development and ripening of the grapes, making close observation of the vines even more important.

Every vineyard has its own rhythm

Tenuta Montemagno grows several grape varieties that reflect the winemaking identity of the area: Ruchè, Barbera, Grignolino, Timorasso, Sauvignon and Syrah.

Each has its own ripening times and dynamics. For this reason, harvest does not follow a fixed date, but is guided by careful observation of the grapes and an assessment of their development.

In a vintage such as 2026, marked by high temperatures and below-average rainfall during part of the summer, this attention becomes even more important. Vineyard work also means understanding how each variety responds to seasonal conditions, preserving its balance and distinctive character.

From the vineyard to the cellar: the 2026 vintage begins to take shape

As harvest progresses, the work gradually moves from the vineyard to the cellar.

This is where the journey begins that will transform the grapes of the 2026 harvest into the new wines of Tenuta Montemagno. Each variety will follow its own timing and winemaking process, respecting the characteristics developed throughout the season and the identity of Monferrato.

In September, it is still too early to define the vintage in full. Vinification and, later, ageing will reveal how freshness, structure, balance and varietal character will be expressed in the different wines.

A new harvest, the same dedication

Every harvest tells a different story.

Climate, ripening times and the response of each grape variety may change from one year to the next. What remains constant is the attention devoted to the vineyards and the ability to interpret their evolution, season after season.

As the 2026 harvest continues at Tenuta Montemagno, every bunch of grapes picked becomes a meeting point between the work carried out over the previous months and the work that will continue in the cellar.

This is where the journey of the new vintage begins.

The 2025 Harvest at Tenuta Montemagno

1 October 2025/in VINEYARDS AND CELLAR /by Rossana Gulli

Excellent balance between freshness, acidity, and structure across all labels.

Article written in collaboration with oenologist Roberto Nantiat, together with Gianfranco Cordero of Tenuta Montemagno.

As every year, weather conditions are the most important and influential factors for those who work in agriculture and, more specifically, in vineyards.

2023 was a year of high temperatures and severe drought. In contrast, 2024 brought conditions completely opposite to the previous year.

And what about 2025? How was the harvest at Tenuta Montemagno?

Once again this year, we interviewed oenologist Roberto Nantiat, who, along with Gianfranco Cordero, oversees the work at Tenuta Montemagno. He updated us on this year’s climate and harvest.

2025 has been a year of recovery because, at least until around mid-August, the climate was normal and well-balanced.

Spring rainfall was slightly abundant but manageable, and thanks to good seasonal temperatures, it favored steady plant growth.

By mid-August, however, we saw a sudden spike in temperatures lasting a couple of weeks, with peaks of 36–37°C. During this period, the heat remained high even at night. Thus, from what had been a calm and rainy year, in just about fifteen days we transitioned into a very hot one.

This had a direct impact on the grapes, which ripened very quickly and earlier than expected. As a result, the harvest began ahead of schedule, also thanks to the excellent sugar levels reached sooner than usual.

On August 19, we began picking Sauvignon (Nymphae and Musae), about two weeks earlier than the usual start date of August 25. By the time we harvested, these grapes already had high sugar content compared to past vintages, which typically began later in the month.

After the mid-August heat, we experienced several weeks of rain toward the end of the month, while the harvest was already underway. This sudden shift lowered temperatures and required a revision of the harvest schedule. We carried out additional sampling to monitor ripening in the vineyards and identify the best dates for each variety.

As a result, we continued with early harvests between late August and the first week of September for Ruchè (Invictus and Nobilis), Timorasso (S olis Vis), and Barbera (Austerum and Mysterium).

In early September, we harvested Syrah (Violae) and Grignolino (Ruber). Today, September 17, we are close to completing the harvest, significantly earlier than in previous years (which typically ended between late September and October 10).

How did this climatic trend, with an earlier (and faster) harvest, reflect on the quality of the wines?

The first tastings show very promising wines, with beautiful freshness (meaning bright acidity), the right alcohol levels, and balance compared to typical high-alcohol wines of hotter vintages. We will therefore have wines that are very well-balanced in terms of freshness, acidity, structure, and alcohol content.

By late November, we expect to begin preparing Malvasia for bottling Dulcem with its flat cork closure.

This year, Piedmont experienced significant rainfall and even hailstorms. What about Tenuta Montemagno’s vineyards?

All major storm systems bypassed our area, sparing us the intense rainfall seen elsewhere in the region.

We did experience a few heavy showers, sometimes accompanied by strong winds, but these had no negative impact on the vineyards.

The soil, which was very dry, absorbed the abundant water perfectly. No hail was recorded, and the grapes remained healthy.

Every year brings specific climatic conditions, requiring readiness and swift action.

These challenges are part of the experience and professionalism of the people working at Tenuta Montemagno. Thanks to this expertise, our winery can consistently ensure the highest quality production, pleasing even the most demanding wine enthusiasts.

Mysterium 2019 tre bicchieri Gambero Rosso

Gambero Rosso 3 glasses to Mysterium 2019, Barbera d’Asti Superiore by Tenuta Montemagno

23 October 2024/in WINES /by Rossana Gulli

Our Barbera d’Asti Superiore DOCG Mysterium 2019 was awarded with the most prestigious and coveted wine award from Gambero Rosso: 3 glasses!

A vine that perfectly identifies and expresses the terroir (as our French cousins call it) in which it is lovingly grown: the Monferrato Astigiano.

In Mysteriu m 2019 we find all the strength, the power of Barbera d’Asti Superiore DOCG, elevated to the rank of excellence thanks to a meticulous selection of grapes in the vineyard from the first days of foliation, until the harvest.

Our agronomists pay special attention to the oldest vines (now eighty years old) on our estate, they daily follow the thinning of the bunches and foliage in order to accommodate the vineyard and the climatic variations of spring and summer until the harvest, which is done strictly by hand, with delivery to the cellar within a few hours of harvesting.

The winemaking processes are followed by the team of oenologists coordinated by Gianfranco Cordero, in compliance with the DOCG production disciplinary, made even more restrictive by our “metodo TM”, to guarantee the excellence of a label that is symbol and icon of Tenuta Montemagno’s wine production.

From the first harvest (it was the year 2009) to today, Mysterium has refined, grown, adapted to climate changes, but has always maintained its identity: power and elegance, strength and refinement, marked acidity and softness. Opposites that attract and find their synthesis in our interpretation of Barbera d’Asti, born from the intuition of Tiziano Barea, an entrepreneur with a great passion for the world of wine, of which he was able to enhance the tradition by combining it with the innovation of winemaking processes, to obtain increasingly healthier wines.

With the recognition of the Three Glasses by thel Gambero Rosso jury, we are proud to be part of that small number of wineries that will be ambassadors of Italian winemaking in the world, alongside historic Piedmontese companies such as Gaja, Giacosa, Oddero,…and many other excellent winemakers who bring the excellence of our territory to the tables all over the world.

Because, first of all, even at Tenuta Montemagno we consider ourselves winemakers who put passion and love into “making wine”…always with an eye on innovation and future.

Mysterium 201 9 is produced in approximately 12,300 bottles from the oldest vineyards of the Estate, harvested with medium-late harvest and aged in Allier oak barrels: one third Barrique, one third Tonneaux and one third large 30 Hl barrels.

Power, fruitiness and freshness accompany finesse, mineral olfactory complexity and a right tannicity that distinguishes the vine of this territory.

The color is intense red, with purple and black reflections, with broad scents, with distinct notes of cherry, earth and persuasive woody notes.

Power, fruitiness and freshness accompany finesse, mineral olfactory complexity and a right tannicity that distinguishes the vine of this territory.

The color is intense red, with purple and black reflections, with broad scents, with distinct notes of cherry, earth and persuasive woody notes.

On the palate it is warm, concentrated, rightly tannic and with excellent aromatic persistence.

With 15% Vol. Mysterium is the ideal label to accompany the most important and classic dishes of autumnal Piedmontese cuisine, such as the great first courses of our tradition.

Tenuta Montemagno wines can be directly purchased on the winery’s website (www.tmwines.it), or tasted in the wine shop or in the wine bars and restaurants that expose their labels.

The harvest Tenuta Montemagno 2023

5 October 2023/in VINEYARDS AND CELLAR /by Rossana Gulli

Article written in collaboration with Roberto Nantiat and Gianfranco Cordero, winemakers of Tenuta Montemagno

It was already understood since last 2022 that this would be a particular year for the cultivation and harvest of the 2023 grapes, remembered as a difficult year due to the extreme drought which compromised part of the vineyards, forcing some wineries to intervene on the plants and replant the cuttings in order to recover, in future years, what water scarcity has caused. But despite these warning signals, 2023 was able to surprise us again, for a strong variability of the climatic conditions that affected the cultivation starting from the winter and which continued until the summer.

Let’s summarize the situation with Roberto Nantiat the winemaker who, with Gianfranco Cordero, follows the works at Tenuta Montemagno, to understand the trend of 2023, with a focus on the harvest just terminated and on what the wines resulting from this harvest will be like.

“This is a particular vintage” Roberto says “but we could already understand it from how spring and summer were; from an extreme period of drought we moved to a semi-resolution during the months of June and early July, to return to another situation of stress due to the high temperatures reached from the beginning to mid-August”.

During this period, for about two weeks, the thermometer marked 40°/45° C with average night-time values always above 30° C. The effect on the plants was the blocking of photosynthesis and therefore the ripening of bunches. So on August 22nd, ahead of the traditional calendar, the Sauvignon harvest began.

“We decided to race against time to prevent these grapes, which are very sensitive to climatic conditions, from burning. Sauvignon, in fact, due to the strong heat can “burn” and produce oxidation which, in turn, could lead to a loss of those aromas that are very important for the varietal”.

The choice to carry out an early harvest was also dictated by the desire to maintain a good quality of the grapes, to the detriment of the volumes harvested.

“At the end of August we had three days of heavy rain”, Roberto continues. “This restored the water balance of the plants. The grapes have started to swell again, the ripening has resumed its course, and the vegetation has therefore also regained the natural colour of the period; from a green with a rather dull brightness it returned to a beautiful dark green, a signal indicating the resumption of photosynthesis”.

From that moment on, the harvest resumed, first with Barbera grapes for the vinification of TM Brut and then with Syrah, used for the Viola e label (blend of Syrah and Barbera). Syrah vinification shows a particularly intense colour, an interesting structure and, therefore, a good concentration.

During the month of September the harvest continued with the Timorasso, which reached perfect ripeness thanks to the heavy rains at the end of August, used for S olis Vis, and Nymphae.

“Now (mid-September, ed.), we are harvesting the Barbera grapes, destined for the vinification of the Austeru m reds and Mysterium, that are offering the same quality as always with greater softness and freshness. Soon we will continue with the Ruchè grapes for Nobili s, while the harvest for Invictus, the Ruché made with a late harvest, will occur two weeks later”.

Summing up the 2023 harvest of Tenuta Montemagno, we can therefore state that it is characterized by reduced volumes, good quality of the harvested bunches and excellent conditions for winemaking.

Spring works in the Tenuta Montemagno vineyard and cellar

18 July 2023/in VINEYARDS AND CELLAR /by Rossana Gulli

Article written in collaboration with Roberto Nantiat and Gianfranco Cordero, winemakers of Tenuta Montemagno

2022 will certainly be remembered by all wine producers as a year of severe drought.

Similarly, 2023 will be remembered for being, at least in the first 6 months, a particularly bizarre year from a meteorological point of view. Past year’s drought lasted for the first months of this one to then suddenly change and bring the attention of winemakers and agronomists from scarcity to abundance of water in the soil.

In this article we will find out with Roberto Nantiat, the winemaker who, with Gianfranco Cordero, follows the works at Tenuta Montemagno, what happened between the rows during the spring on the estate and what was done to deal with the sudden abundance of water and to prepare the vineyard at its best for a season, the summer, which leads to the harvest.

The first part of spring 2023 was still marked by drought. A status that has its origins in the past year and which has persisted, except for some sporadic rainy and snowy events, throughout the winter and the first part of this year. Since May there has been a climatic inversion: from zero rain to 2-3 days of rain per week.

This reversal brings with it two potential consequences: one positive and one negative.

The first, as it is easy to imagine, solves the water problem; the abundant rains bring a lot of nourishment to the vines and these show a strong vegetation. The second, also easily guessable, is the possible presence of fungi (mainly downy mildew and powdery mildew), which caused by the very short time between one rainy event and the next, could become particularly strong and aggressive. Utmost attention therefore, with protective interventions to be carried out in the vineyard, such as the more orderly “distribution” of the shoots, so that a greater passage of air is created and the potential risks of taking root and growth of fungi are reduced.

Another rather unusual aspect that could require corrective interventions is always linked to the abundance of water and the consequent vegetative thrust of the plants which is shown with an evident luxuriance of the foliage.

This sign is definitely positive, but shows a slightly uneven growth of the shoots even at individual plant level.

This is the result of the stress suffered by the vines during the drought, when the shoots all grew with great difficulty; now, with the arrival of rainfall, the differences generated by this stress can be clearly seen, with some shoots stronger than others.

This vegetative inhomogeneity leads us to monitor the evolution of the season with great meticulousness, to plan in advance interventions in the vineyard, presumably at the beginning of August. Normally we already carry out the thinning of the bunches, so as to guarantee the right balance between the quality of the harvested grapes and the quantity; this year we expect an intensification of this operation which gives strength to the vine and to the ripest bunches and nourishment to the soil, on which the pruned bunches are left.

In the cellar we continued with the bottling of most of the red wines, while for the whites this activity was completed at the end of winter: Violae (blend of Syrah and Barbera d’Asti), Soranus (the Barolo of Tenuta Motnemagno), Mysterium 2019 (Barbera d’Asti Superiore) and Nobilis (Ruchè di Castagnole Monferrato).

Invictus will soon follow, always Ruchè from Castagnole Monferrato, particularly decisive and structured, obtained by carrying out a late harvest of the grapes. Resting horizontally for 24 and 36 months, on the other hand, the TM Brut (Metodo Classico from Barbera grapes), whose “draft” was carried out in mid-late March.

The climate changes we wrote about in the first part of the article have had another positive response. While during the winter it was evident that the vegetation of the vineyard was two weeks early, now it can be seen how this condition has been reset; as a result, the harvest forecast could return to the more traditional deadlines, from the end of August to the beginning of September onwards.

We will therefore talk about this again in the next editorial, when we will have updates on the status of the vineyard during the summer and on the preparation or completion work for the 2023 harvest.

White, fresh, still, Tenuta Montemagno wines for summer

21 June 2023/in WINES /by Rossana Gulli

Summer is synonymous with long, sunny days, evenings with friends and aperitifs to spend moments in pleasant company … also with a good glass of wine, preferably white, fresh and with a wide bouquet of aromas.

The combination of “beautiful season, glass of fresh white wine” has always marked the most cheerful and convivial moments.

White wines have the gift of being able to mitigate the summer heat thanks to their freshness, aromaticity and, in some cases, distinct minerality capable of making drinking extremely pleasant.

In a land of important red wines (Ruché, Barbera, Grignolino), the many varieties of Tenuta Montemagno white wines stand out, capable of delighting the senses with their fruity, aromatic and savory notes, discovering endless possibilities for experiences and pairings.

Nypmhae is a blend of Sauvignon and Timorasso grapes grown in the estate’s vineyards with south/southwest exposure. The combination of these grapes results in a wine that is exclusive for its richness of sensations on the palate and nose (characteristics of the Sauvignon grape variety), with an important minerality given by the soil rich in sodium, magnesium and potassium, typical of Timorasso grapes.

This Sauvignon gives intense notes of citrus and exotic fruit, where the passion fruit stands out in particular, while the Timorasso gives off delicate mineral and flint notes. It is an intense, complex and very pleasant white wine.

Its structure, complex and firm, makes it a wine with a good capacity for aging, very versatile in pairings, so much so that it is a great classic for structured aperitifs and Sunday brunches.

Musae, is the fruit of Sauvignon Blanc and Sauvignon Gris (mutation of Sauvignon Blanc characterized by the pink berry) grapes, vinified in purity. This label stands out for its ample aromatic notes and taste persistence. It is a smooth and firm wine on the palate. Elegant and with pleasant freshness, it stands out for the great intensity of aromas, we find a lot of citrus but also acacia flowers and honey, savory and with great persistence and intensity.

As summer approaches, it is the perfect wine, served at a temperature of 10°-12°, to accompany the simplest aperitifs and fish dishes, even raw.

Solis Vis is the Piedmontese white wine, made from Timorasso grapes, capable of conveying sensations and emotions that have nothing to envy to those of the finest red wines. For the longevity it can achieve, we can safely call it a white wine with the soul of a great red. Solis Vis is a particular label, it gives intense mineral notes the delicate scent of freshly cut pear and a unique sapidity and intensity, its persistence is truly amazing, this white is able to reach important gradations and to accompany dishes characterized by a strong personality: from seasoned and tasty cheeses typical of Piedmontese production, to cod, shellfish up to foie gras escalopes and spiced poultry, without forgetting the traditional “vitello tonnato”, a typical recipe of the territory.

Nymphae, Musae, Solis Vis from Tenuta Montemagno are the perfect wines to let yourself be transported into an unforgettable experience, with the infinite aromatic nuances and heady freshness that only whites born in a land of important reds, can give.

To taste unusual pairings or the classics of Monferrato cuisine with our summer labels, come visit us at the Civetta sul Comò restaurant, or buy our wines directly to pair with your recipes.

All Tenuta Montemagno wines are available in our online shop.

New interior design and new services at Tenuta Montemagno Relais & Wines

24 May 2023/in RELAIS /by Rossana Gulli

During early months of 2023, important work was carried out to give the rooms of Tenuta Montemagno Relais & Wines a new look. The objectives of these activities were to renovate the structure, to maintain a service adequate to the customer expectations and, above all, to increase the level of quality to be offered to guests staying at the relais.

The main work was carried out in the Junior Suites and, to a lesser extent, in the Classic and Superior rooms. Aesthetic improvement work was carried out in all the rooms of the relais.

In all rooms and suites, the light lines have been changed. New lamps with a modern design that wink at the lighting that once characterised country houses, thanks to their tapered shapes that evoke candle flames.

In the Junior Suites, the furnishings have been completely redesigned and the spaces on the ground floor have been reconfigured.

Here, thanks to the introduction of the new furnishings, small sitting rooms have been created that can be reconfigured to create an additional one-and-a-half bed, to accommodate one or two children for the night or daytime rest hours.

But the renovation also concerns the services offered to customers. New relaxation and entertainment activities that make, and will make, your stay in the rolling hills of Monferrato extremely pleasant.

Starting in May, a piano/american bar will be available. This activity, available from early evening until around midnight on weekends until the end of May and every day from June onwards, will be available to guests, but also to outsiders not staying at the relais. The service will take place in the courtyard in front of the tasting room, where new furniture will create the piano bar lounge space.

In the tasting room bar, a barman will prepare customers’ orders while a pianist will entertain customers by playing a grand piano.

Summer evenings and the colours of sunset creeping across the contours of the hills and villages in front of the Tenuta will become magic moments for guests at the Piano Bar. Music and taste will be actors that make the Tenuta Montemagno Relais & Wines experience even more unforgettable.
