Awarded the PGI label in 2014, Pomelo is distinguished by :
- its variety: star ruby,
- its yellow colour, which may have an orange-red area on the surface
- its skin is smooth and fine.
It matures naturally on the tree, not in cold storage.
Organic, Beautiful and Good
Our Corsican pomelos are grown organically with the greatest care, without any chemical treatments.
They ripen on the tree and reach their yellow-orange colour gradually and naturally.
The grapes are harvested entirely by hand. It takes place from January to June.
The Corsican Pomelo is seedless, very juicy, sweet with a hint of acidity and no bitterness. The fruit of vitality and health, rich in vitamins and minerals.

A year in the life of Pomelo
Flowering
It's wonderfully beautiful and totally intoxicating? And yes, it's flowering! It's a crucial time: as they gather pollen, bees help to pollinate the plants.
Vegetative development
Qui va piano, va sano, va lontano! It takes a long time for my pomelo to become big and have beautiful orange-yellow colours. In Puntimoso, I ripen on my tree!
Harvest
From January to June, the pickers look after me and my mates. 6 months of harvesting and we're on top form! My word as a pomelo.
Tasting
Try us: we're the best! By the way, do you prefer us sweet or savoury?
In a salad with white meat and a few spices: that's it!
