Dolceacqua & the Rossese hills

Liguria

Dolceacqua's humpback bridge and Doria castle — both painted by Monet — sit at the foot of terraced hills planted with Rossese vines. Marked tracks climb from the old town through the vineyards toward Monte Morgi and the hamlet of Camporosso, with views over the Nervia valley to the Ligurian Alps.
