Today, the Organic Family Estate, BARONE RYOLO dal 1824 is a young
and entrepreneurial firm which manages the Fontanelle Estate.
Besides vegetables and fruit, we produce an Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil And red and white wines very good. This special oil is selected DOP Valdemone and cold pressed, the cultivar are Biancolilla, Nocellara Messinese, Ogliarola Messinese, Carolea.
The oil extracted following official organic agricoltural guidelines, it has a strong and spicy taste and at the same time a fruitful flavour, with hints of almonds, peppers, tomatoes and the perfume of Sicily’s natural wild plants, of the likes of
“woolly thistle”.
Moreover, we have transformed the old barns and the outbuildings in the “Agriturismo Fontanelle”, both agriturismo and restaurant with biological ingredients authorized by the Region of Sicily. These buildings, dated 1880, have been renovated with the aim of preserving the old treasures located in them: stone and wooden screwpresses as well the
whole architectural infrastructure.
