Proprietà Sperino

The Lessona appellation is located in the western part of the Upper Piedmont and consists of mineral-rich soils composed mainly of marine sediments and porphyritic rock. Altitudes average 350 meters and the climate is mild, with good temperature range, thanks to the proximity of Monte Rosa, which protects the area from currents from the north.Read more
