What grows here
Lerici
6 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Lerici, a coastal municipality within Liguria's La Spezia province, enjoys a specific microclimate shaped by its immediate proximity to the sea and the rugged Ligurian hills. This distinctive environment is crucial for its protected origins. Among a total of 6 denominations, the celebrated Colli di Luni DOC wine finds its unique expression here, belonging to a zone comprising just 17 municipalities. This local geology and maritime influence also allow the broader Liguria di Levante IGT wines and the distinct Riviera Ligure DOP olive oil to thrive, imbuing them with character intrinsically tied to this corner of the Italian coastline.
