Boscolo Sesillo Paolo

On the edge of the Venetian lagoon, Paolo Boscolo Sesillo cultivates Radicchio di Chioggia IGP where the alluvial soil of the Po delta meets the maritime climate, a combination not replicated elsewhere. Its spherical heads, marked by white veins on deep red leaves, follow the denomination's dual seasonal rhythm: the early harvest, with its subtle and delicate bitterness, and the late varieties, with a more concentrated intensity. The producer operates within the area of ten municipalities that defines authentic Chioggia radicchio, a restricted perimeter that links the product to a precise stretch of the Venetian coast. Managing this crop requires specialized expertise: radicchio is a temperamental vegetable, sensitive to changing seasons, and its quality depends on the ability to accompany its cycles without forcing them. At Boscolo Sesillo, this knowledge translates into production faithful to the regulations, where the dual harvest window allows for offering two faces of the same vegetable—one gentler, the other more intense—both rooted in the lagoon.
