Castello Serragiumenta

Agriculture is central in Serragiumenta. The history of wine in Serragiumenta began in 2004 when the enterprise started cultivating native vineyards.

The company now produces extra virgin organic olive oil, red and white wine with a prevalence of typical Calabrian vines; breeds sheep and the prized black pig, for first quality cheeses and meats. And again, fruit trees and preserves, also based on prickly pears, thanks to dozens of plants that line the long driveway to the Castle, a natural setting of great impact and beauty.

A complete company that loves to live and get to know even with educational farms for groups and schools, and that with photovoltaic plants is aiming for clean and renewable energy.

In addition, Montréal boasts a fabulous cooking school ITHQ where young aspiring chefs learn Italian technic and Italian traditional recipes from the masters.

    So the next time you make reservations for an Italian dinner in a Montreal restaurant, ask if they’ve received the Ospitalità Italiana seal of approval. You will enjoy the true Italian taste.
