The history of La Collina dei Melograni begins in 2013 with the purchase of approximately 10 HA in the municipality of Anguillara Sabazia, the first years were dedicated to the production of cereals, the planting of over 1,700 pomegranate plants of the Wonderful variety took place in 2017. The variety Wonderful, of American origin, is among the most appreciated as it lends itself both to the consumption of the fresh product and to squeezing, in our latitudes it matures in the month of October, from the arils a juice with a sweet and sour flavor is obtained.
The plant cultivation system adopted is the one called "Israeli" as in Israel in the last 30 years a lot of work has been done on perfecting the breeding of this type of plant.
Today the company-owned extension is 15 HA, a further 12 HA are rented, the pomegranate orchard occupies an area of 3.5 HA, another 5 HA are occupied by an almond orchard planted in 2020. The company has begun the process of conversion from conventional to organic cultivation in 2016, since 2019 all our land and related products have been certified as organic by the ICEA certification body.
The pomegranate orchard produces 500/700 quintals of pomegranates annually, the majority of which is sold as a fresh product, the remainder is transformed into juices.
