Cannellini beans

                            

The cannellino bean is produced in the Atina, Villa Latina area on land next to the river mollarino and river melfa, as the terrain is rich in manganese which is important in the cultivation of the beans .

The cannellIno bean has been saved by  the COOPERATIVA AGRICOLA DEL MOLLARINO.

This cooperative was formed to save the original

Seed as it was nearly extinct due to the introduction of new imported strains.

The seed was used by a handfull of the older generation of local farmers producing small quantities for personal use. Thankfully now the cooperative has avoided the loss of a local product which goes back to ancient times .The cannellino bean was a favorite in the kitchens of the 17 century King Ferdinando 11 di Borbone.

The Palumbo company is essentially a family managed company and rests its foundations on very strong grape and wine traditions: in fact, Mr Giovanni Palombo and his two sons represent the fourth generation of viticulturists of the Palombo family. Also, Atina, where the company is based, is a town located in the Val Comino at an altitude of 500 metres above sea level and constitutes an ideal natural environment for the cultivation of grape vines and also for the production of high quality wines. In particular, we want to emphasise the century old tradition of Cabernet grapes in Atina that has now entered the history and the culture of the town.
Strong in this family tradition and as its only representative in the area, the principle aim of the Palombo company is to maintain a policy of continuous development and modernization, investing in new production technologies and in excellent vineyards, so as to always obtain a genuine, precious and high quality wine. The products of the Palombo company are a concrete testimony of the wonderful grape and wine culture of the area. As well as the Cabernet wine, we should mention the Merlot wine with its rich bouquet matured in oak barrels; the Novello wine its delicate fruity aroma and a white wine with a fresh and delicate aroma.
