Nizza Monferrato celebrates autumn with the Fiera di San Carlo, dedicated to the gobbo cardoon and bagna cauda, two symbols of Piedmontese gastronomy. At the stalls, visitors can taste the crunchy vegetables immersed in the hot sauce of anchovies and garlic, accompanied by local wines that enhance the flavors. The streets of the city are transformed into a large market, with agricultural exhibitions, crafts, and performances enlivening the atmosphere. There are also cultural moments and guided tastings that tell the story of the bond between the territory and cuisine. It is a fair that combines tradition, taste, and conviviality, enhancing the excellences of Monferrato.
