The wine region of Ticino
Ticino is a relatively small wine region in the alpine South of Switzerland, prized for its Merlot, and located along its border with Italy. The wine region's borders follow those of the canton of Ticino, a primarily Italian-speaking enclave in the landlocked multilingual country (the canton is called "Tessin" by the French and German speakers). Vineyard">Vineyards in region cover just over 1,100 hectares (2,700 acres) and are centred around the rivers and large, alpine lakes of the canton. The latter are a major tourist attraction - much like the lake of Como, just 5km (3 miles) from Ticino's southernmost tip - and they all share water with Italy.
The word of the wine: Tertiary aromas
Aromas resulting from the aging of the wine in the bottle. The aromas evolve with time, from fresh fruitiness to notes of stewed, candied or dried fruit, to aromas of venison or undergrowth.
