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 />
