Azienda Agricola SILVIA MAGLIOCCO

On the coast of Siracusa, exposed to Ionian winds and resting on volcanic soils, Azienda Agricola Silvia Magliocco cultivates Femminello lemons for the Limone di Siracusa IGP. The environment influences the fruit's acidity and profile, and the denomination itself arises from the sum of ten municipalities that define its protected geography. The unique aspect lies in the calendar: the same tree yields three distinct harvests throughout the year. The Primofiore ripens between autumn and winter, the Bianchetto arrives in spring, and the Verdello concludes in summer—each with its own aromatic profile, as if the lemon's voice changes with the seasons. Following this schedule requires continuous and careful harvesting, far removed from the logic of a single harvest period. The citrus fruits reach the markets fragrant and firm, carrying with them the precise mark of the coastal stretch from which they originate. The choice to work with a single IGP focuses the company's efforts on this fruit and the restricted territory that defines it.
