In our estates, Sperlinga estate, Villa estate and San Giuseppe estate, we have chosen to produce a lemon of unique quality. For this reason, the harvest is done strictly by hand , respecting the varieties and the degree of ripeness.
Our customers demand excellent quality lemons. With manual harvesting, our operators are able to carefully select the product that best suits their needs.
