Azienda Agricola VALLEVERDE SRL

On the outskirts of Lentini, in the province of Siracusa, Azienda Agricola Valleverde operates within the perimeter of the `IGP Limone di Siracusa`, a denomination that stretches across ten municipalities on Sicily's southeastern coast. The plants are of the `Femminello` variety, cultivated on sun-exposed slopes where prolonged heat guides the fruit towards the succulence that defines the character of the area. The unique aspect lies in the calendar: the same plant offers three staggered harvests throughout the year. The `Primofiore` ripens in autumn, the `Bianchetto` arrives in winter, and the `Verdello` concludes in summer, with each window imparting distinct nuances of acidity, peel, and yield to the lemon. This rhythm extends the season far beyond the usual boundaries for citrus and links the company's work to the continuous production of the Siracusan coastal strip. In this alternation of flows, the denomination finds its identity, preserved by those who cultivate it, municipality after municipality, without succumbing to the logic of a single harvest.
