Sobre la bodega y los vinos

The origins of this beautiful winery located in the territory of Rovereto di Gavi (AL), on the Piedmontese foothills of the Apennines are very old, GIUSTINIANA boasts a history that takes it back in time to the year one thousand when the Benedictines who had founded a grange (farm) started the cultivation of the vine. As early as 900 AD in the annals of the Republic of Genoa there is mention of a Benedictine settlement on the hills overlooking the river Lemme. The "Grangia Bassiniana" is mentioned in a document dated 1250 as an agricultural farm of the Abbey of Rivalta Scrivia which produced wheat, but above all wine. Of this settlement remain the watchtower and defense, the chapel and several rooms with vaults and capitals. At the beginning of 1600 the property passed to the Giustiniani family, a member of which, commander of the Genoese militia, victoriously defended the Fort of Gavi, at that time an important strategic commercial and military junction, from one of the many French sieges. It was the Giustiniani family who built the villa in neoclassical style that still dominates the access to the estate, which took the name of Giustiniana. The beauty of the place, from landscape to nature, the vocation of the land to produce wonderful wines, made the most important Genoese families: Doria, Spinola, Cambiaso, over the years disputed the ownership of Giustiniana over the centuries.
