The best wineries in Alessandria.
Vineyard owners for four generations, the Accornero family continues with the same passion and the same commitment of great–grandfather Bartolomeo in producing high quality wines.
Bartolomeo Accornero, who was born in 1839, and his wife Giuseppina Lasagna, already owners of a small farm adjacent to the existing property, had five children: in addition to the conduct of their lands, Bartolomeo, assisted by his son Giuseppe, took care in quality of agricultural tertiary of the estate of the Palace of the Callori Counts (now seat of Enoteca Regionale of Vignale Monferrato).
The result of many years of hard work and savings was the purchase, in 1897, of Cascina Ca’ Cima, from the noble knight Negri. Then, the generation continues with Giovanni Battista Angelo Accornero, son of Giuseppe, who married Alfonsina Coppo. From this union, Giulio Accornero was born, the current owner with his wife Mariuccia and their children Ermanno and Massimo.
The Meirana covers 100 hectares, of which 63 are specialized in Cortese vines and 2 in red berry grape varieties. The cultivation system is traditional Guyot. The name Meirana is linked to the history of Gavi, in effect, one of the first documents that refer to the name Gavi is preserved in the archive of the State of Genoa and refers to vineyards and chestnut woods in the Meirana locality.
This document, dated 971 AD, marks the winemaking tradition of the area that coincides with the dawn of the history of the municipality of Gavi.
Azienda Vitivinicola Broglia was founded by Bruno Broglia, continuing over time a thousand year tradition, which is now being pursued with commitment and passion by his sons Gian Piero and Paolo. At Meirana, in the 80s, the clonal research on the Cortese vine began, in collaboration with the faculty of Agriculture of the University of Turin and under the direction of Professor Scienza of the faculty of Agriculture of the University of Milan. More studies have been conducted in the cellar, concerning especially the absence of sulfur dioxide in winemaking.
They selected and certified 3 new clones that have been planted in recent years in our new vines covering 15 hectares.
Gavi La Meirana has been served on the tables of the Vatican on the occasion of the celebrations for the 25th anniversary of the Pontificate of Pope John Paul II. It was present even on the occasion of the G8 meeting in L’Aquila in July 2009, and offered during official banquets in the offices of the Italian Embassies.
The first bottles were put on the market in 1974, exactly in year when Gavi obtained the designation of origin. Then, with a gradual schedule of investments, the farmhouses on the property were restructured.
The winery for vinification and bottling was built in 1982 and in the year 2000 was enlarged and restructured. The basic production marketed under the brand Gavi DOCG of Gavi La Meirana, which bears the name of the estate, is characteristic for its balanced almond taste and can be combined with dishes based on fish and white meat.
The most valuable wine produced, is the selection Gavi DOCG of Gavi Bruno Broglia, that comes from vineyards planted in 1953 and 1955. The yield of these vineyards, on average, in the different vintages, ranges from 30 to 40 quintals per hectare, ie about one–third of that provided by the rules of Gavi. The harvest takes place in fruit crates, after a selection of the best grapes and, after eight months of aging in stainless steel tanks, all their minerality stands out. The Bruno Broglia company got the best prizes and ratings on Italian and foreign food and wine guides and magazines.
Another cru comes from the Villa Broglia vineyard, whose name it bears. Moreover, are produced: Spumante Brut Roverello with controlled designation of origin and guaranteed, with the indication “Gavi” of the Municipality of Gavi, and Spumante Brut Roverello Rosè, both obtained with the Charmat method. In the most favorable vintages, Spumante Extra Brut Broglia is produced with the traditional classic method.

The actual management of the Daglio Giovanni agricultural company was founded in the eighties by the will of Giovanni to renew the company to which his family had worked for generations.
The land is the most important element in the company’s philosophy: the exposure, the amalgam and the grassing of the soil give to grapes the characteristics that all other stages of processing in the winery have the specific task of not altering. The careful wine processing allows, then, not to overturn the innate potentialities that each cluster gives us at the time of manual harvesting.
