MENDRISIOTTO<br />
WINE RED<br />
LAND OF<br />
ARTISTS<br />
This region is well-known for its<br />
vineyards, which occupy around<br />
40% of Ticino’s wine-growing area.<br />
In late summer, visitors are welcome<br />
among the vines to experience<br />
the atmosphere of the traditional<br />
grape harvest.<br />
Pier Francesco Mola, Vincenzo Vela<br />
and the architects Carlo Fontana<br />
and Mario Botta, all born in the<br />
region, are proof of this. 5 museums<br />
in the Mendrisiotto Art Museums<br />
network raise awareness about this<br />
wealth of culture.<br />
