What grows here

Bistagno

22 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.

Bistagno, an Alessandria-province commune of 1,697 residents, offers a unique terroir where Piedmontese river valleys meet sun-drenched hills. This topography allows 22 protected designations to thrive. Chief among these highly localized treasures is Dolcetto d'Acqui DOC, a ruby-red wine cultivated across a tight zone of just 23 municipalities. Alongside it, the aromatic Brachetto d'Acqui DOCG finds its ideal microclimate within a restricted territory of 26 communes. These steep clay-limestone slopes imbue the grapes with a distinctive acidity, cementing Bistagno’s viticultural importance.
