Montescano is a very little town, located about 20 km to Pavia, 50 km to Milan and 40 km to Piacenza. 

Surrounded by the green hills of the Oltrepo Pavese that frequently called the Tuscany of the North of Italy. 

The area offer several attractions: smooth hills, medieval villages and castles, panoramic views, authentic Italian food and local wines. The Oltrepo happens to be the largest wine producing area of Lombardy and one of the largest in Italy, especially of the Pinot Nero. The landscape is scattered with vineyards that are freely accessible for hikers or even mountain biking. 

Montescano offer peace and quiet, tranquility and the silence (while strolling in the vineyards for example) is often overwhelming. Life still has a slow pace here, as the locals are living the life in more or less the same way their ancestors did: growing wine is a labor that follows the seasons, year after year, generation after generation.
