What grows here
Nesso
15 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Clinging to the steep, rocky shores of Lake Como in the province of Como, Nesso benefits from a lakeside microclimate where Alpine slopes meet deep waters. This distinct, humid atmosphere directly shapes the 15 protected denominations overlapping this territory. Here, the rare Terre Lariane IGT wines flourish on sun-drenched terraced vineyards, limited to a zone of just 180 municipalities. This damp mountain air also perfectly cures Salame Brianza DOP, a traditional cured meat restricted to a zone of 286 municipalities, capturing the authentic essence of this rugged Lombardy terroir.
