Location & what to see

La Fortezza di Gavi – is located in the heart of the historic centre of Gavi, a village in the Piedmontese province of Alessandria known for its Cortese wine production and dominated by the imposing Forte di Gavi, a 16th-century fortress built by the Republic of Genoa on a rocky spur overlooking the entire valley. Around the property, cobbled alleys, historic stone buildings and wine bars where you can taste local labels wind through an intimate, quiet atmosphere far from traffic, yet still just a few steps from the village’s bars, shops and restaurants.

Those arriving by car can rely on an easy connection to the A7 Genoa-Milan motorway, while by train the nearest stations are Serravalle Scrivia, about 5 km away, and Arquata Scrivia, about 6 km away, both useful for reaching Genoa, Alessandria or Milan. Genoa-Sestri Airport is about 30 km away and connected to the Ligurian capital via motorway, while the centre of Genoa, with its famous aquarium, is about 43-45 km away. Within a few dozen metres of the property are also some of the village’s most popular venues, such as Beer & Co and Cantine del Gavi, both about 50 metres away, and Il Girasole, 100 metres away.

History lovers can reach the archaeological area of Libarna in just a few minutes, an ancient Roman city about 5 km from Gavi, with well-preserved remains of an amphitheatre, baths and domus, or spend a day at Story Park, the Historical Park of Alto Monferrato, about 12 km away. In summer, the area is well suited to walks and hikes among the vineyard-covered hills of Gavi DOCG, with views of the Ligurian Alps, while in autumn the area comes alive with wine festivals, walks among the vineyards during harvest, and markets dedicated to typical Monferrato products such as truffles, cheeses and local cured meats.
