Mezzanego

Mezzanego, a scattered municipality within the Metropolitan City of Genoa, Liguria, embodies the diverse agricultural potential of its fragmented territory. This unique geographical characteristic contributes to the distinctiveness of its produce, especially its wines. Here, the terroir nurtures grapes for two prominent local wine designations: Portofino DOC, covering 36 municipalities, and Colline del Genovesato IGT, which spans 42. Beyond viticulture, the local landscape supports the cultivation of olives essential for Riviera Ligure DOP olive oil. In total, six protected denominations overlap in this area, underscoring its agricultural importance. Currently, one verified producer based in Mezzanego actively crafts these regional treasures, offering direct visits to experience their work.
