Via Viotti, 14, Fontanetto Po

The area sits in the Monferrato hills above the Po, with mixed vineyard, woodland and cultivated slopes. The Po river runs just below Gabiano, and the broader river plain opens north of the hills. This is part of the Monferrato wine landscape, known for vineyards and wine production; the wider Monferrato wine country is a UNESCO World Heritage cultural landscape, though Gabiano itself is on its northern edge rather than in a major monumental centre. Casale Monferrato is the nearest town of size, with services, shops and a substantial historic centre.
