Grignolino and Ruchè Wine Tour

Dirt tracks winding through rows of Grignolino and Ruchè vines, villages where time moves slowly, and breathtaking views: this is Monferrato as seen from an e-bike. From Portacomaro, you'll cycle along gentle undulations and livelier stretches, following the scents of the vineyards and the traces of the old tramway that criss-crossed these hills in the early 20th century. One side road after another, discover the Ruchè Museum, the charming Cortile dei Camminatori di Domande and authentic landscapes far from mass tourism. All this — effortlessly, with the motor to assist you.

Portacomaro is a quiet, authentic hilltop village, known as the birthplace of Pope Francis’s family. The parish church and the stone-paved alleyways are well worth a leisurely stop.

Castagnole Monferrato is the capital of Ruchè: here you’ll find the museum dedicated to this native grape variety, and you can feel the passion for a viticulture that is deeply rooted in the local identity.

Calliano Monferrato surprises with its medieval castle overlooking the valley and the tranquillity of a village where nature and history coexist in perfect harmony.

A 35 km loop, starting and finishing in Portacomaro, fully self-guided using the BikeSquare app: maps, points of interest and navigation are always at your fingertips. A simple adventure, accessible to everyone, to discover the real Monferrato, one ride at a time.
