What grows here
Carlazzo
15 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Carlazzo defines its gastronomic character within the rugged alpine corridor of the Menaggio Valley, where mountain winds shape 15 protected denominations. On the local terraced slopes, growers produce Terre Lariane IGT wines, a regional specialty confined to a zone of 180 municipalities. The valley's dry air also benefits the curing of Salame Brianza DOP, limited to a territory of 286 towns. By blending high-altitude viticulture with traditional Lombard dairy crafts, such as the aging of Taleggio DOP, Carlazzo utilizes its specific transition climate between lake and pass to produce highly specialized foods.
