What grows here
Rezzago
15 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Rezzago, a micro-hamlet of just over 300 residents recognized officially as one of Italy's certified authentic historic villages, rises in the mountainous Como province. Here, a unique Alpine-foothill climate nurtures a remarkable culinary diversity, boasting 15 protected origins. Chief among these is the ultra-local Terre Lariane IGT, which captures the mineral essence of the steep lake-area slopes. This rugged terrain also shapes the curing of Salame Brianza DOP, a local delicatessen classic. From high-altitude pastures to these historic stone lanes, Rezzago preserves a rare, concentrated gastronomic legacy that defines the Lombardy pre-Alps.
