Description
The San Massimo Reserve, An Agricultural Area Surrounded By Unspoiled Nature And Far From Thoroughfares, Already Gives Life To Three Varieties Of Highly Quality Rice Whose Cultivation Takes Place Exclusively Within The Reserve: The Authentic Carnaroli, Both Classic And Whole Grain, The Vialone Nano, And The Rosa Marchetti. To These, The New Line Of I Fontanili Carnaroli Is Now Added, A High-Quality Rice Characterized By A Long Grain That Is Resistant To Cooking. After Years Of Experience And Careful Analysis Of The Productivity Of Individual Fields In The Reserve, We Have Found That The 50 Meters Of Elevation That Separate The Low-Lying Agricultural Land From The Area Known As Upper San Massimo Make The High-Lying Agricultural Land, The Terrace Overlooking The Ticino Valley, Less Humid, More Friable, More Draining, And Ideal For Cultivating Carnaroli I Fontanili. This New Variety Of Rice Is Not Only The Outcome Of Our Commitment To Agronomic Research But Also The Result Of Work Performed With Affection And Reverence For Nature. We Employ Environmentally Conscious Agricultural Methods That Uphold The Splendor Of Our Land And The Quality Of Our Product. ''I Fontanili'' Rice Is Processed And Selected According To The Philosophy Of The San Massimo Reserve: In Addition To Delighting The Palate With The Creamy Texture And Unmistakable Taste Of Carnaroli, I Fontanili Also Represents Our Contribution To Sustainability And Reduction Of Our Environmental Impact The Product Is Then Packaged In A Protective Atmosphere For Optimal Storage In A Recyclable Pack.
