THE LAND OF RICE

From the land of rice a grain of tradition

We would take you to our countryside, show you the dreamy and majestic gray herons waiting on the banks of the ditches, we would like to give you the colors that the plain offers us in every season, cradling our moods and stroking our people.

There is a special fascination that binds us to the land in which we grow and our Mantua, with the whole province, surrounds us with natural historical, monumental wonders. Following the flow of Mincio and Po rivers, walking in the village little squares and in the largest ones of the main city, visiting the palaces and churches, You will often notice one thing: we like to be together, at the table.

The habits of people have deep roots, so also for the sense of being together celebrating, appreciating the dishes that talk about us and make honor to local resources and skills.

Gonzaga’s Family made this city, Mantua, a great Renaissance court in which the styles and values related to the table changed over time, until we inherited important and refined recipes, signed by a great Master, Bartolomeo Stefani. That's also part of our way of being.

Festivals that illuminate the territory around Mantua, still celebrate the raw materials, the recipes, the pleasure of being together and the rice, in particular “Vialone Nano”’s quality, is the protagonist.
