One is the stunning view from the top of the town with sweeping views of Barolo DOCG, and the other, on the main square, is the Marcarini winery that dates back to the 1700s. Lasarin is produced from the grapes of the youngest Nebbiolo-Barolo vineyards and, in particular, from the ancient Nebbiolo vineyard in the Roero region (on the left side of the Tanaro river), uniting the grapes noble heritage with enjoyable freshness and easy drinking.
