Experience in picking Leonforte PGI peaches, preparing and tasting jam

Among the serene hills where the seasons alternate in a harmonious rhythm, late peaches are born, and jewels of nature ripen under the gentle late summer sun from September to the end of October. Awarded the prestigious PGI recognition, they contain an unusually firm pulp, with shades of yellow and white. Less sweet than their summer cousins, these peaches offer a particular density and aroma and a measured sweetness. There is a ritual, almost sacred, in their care. Four months before harvesting, each fruit is delicately bagged, a gesture of love that protects its integrity and avoids the use of chemical treatments. This ancestral technique, which creates a sort of ideal microclimate, enhances the aromas and preserves the naturalness of the fruit, allowing it to absorb and intensify the best of the land that nourishes it. At the end of September, you can experience the peach harvest and taste it together with the jams and other excellent products of Angelo and Melania Manna.
