Discover some curiosities!

Tenuta Montemagno
A relais where even four-legged friends can relax and have fun. Since Peggy, the first dog hosted here in 2006, inaugurated the tradition, many other dogs (and even a rabbit) have spent carefree days enjoying walks and poolside moments.

Borsalino Museum
The famous hat brand has an unexpected connection to the animal world: Indiana Jones! The adventurer created by George Lucas owes his name to the director’s dog and always wears a Borsalino fedora. Visit the brand’s museum to learn more!

Terrazza Coppo
The lively and contemporary farm, where the four-legged friends Pelo, Cloe, Freya, and Niad accompany each workday in the vineyard and farm.

Cave di Moleto
The restaurant in the heart of Monferrato where dogs go wild for the flank steak! Stop by to also give some affection to Artù, the friendly kitten who welcomes all customers upon arrival.
