THE MAGIC TREE AND WITTY CHRISTMAS:
A Monferrato peasant legend has it that, in the hilltop village, a Spiritful Father Christmas decorated the trees with drops of a magical distillate that warmed the heart and made the soul smile. Since that night, it has been a tradition in that hilltop village to wish each other a Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas to you, then, from the House of Grappa on the top of the hill of Altavilla Monferrato!
