San Marzano Tomatoes, Fontanella (400gr)

San Marzano tomatoes are Italy's most famous and the only protected tomatoes appellation for a reason.

The San Marzano tomatoes variety is grown all over Italy and beyond, it is not the variety that makes them unique, it is where they are grown, the soil. The San Marzano tomatoes DOP are grown in a small area at the foot of the mount Vesuvio, which has proved, due to the characteristics of its soil, volcanic and rich in mineral, to produce the sweetest, bursting with flavour and rich in vitamins, tomatoes.

Because of their unique taste and characteristics, San Marzano tomatoes DOP have become a sought after ingredient from chefs and food lovers all over the world, and whether a simple Margherita pizza or a rich Bolognese sauce, they will transform the dish. San Marzano tomatoes DOP are a must have for any food lover or cook.

Fontanella is a family that has been cultivating and selecting the best Italian tomatoes since 1957.

Passion and experience are their values. Fontanella selects the fields in which to grow the best quality tomatoes and they work them as our grandparents did, using the same tools they were using, smell and touch.

All their tomatoes, not only the San Marzano DOP, come from Italy, from the sunny southern Italian regions, and only the best and ripe tomatoes end in their tins. The secret of any tomato based sauce is in the ripeness of the tomatoes, if the tomatoes are ripe the resulting product is sweet and do not need anything to balance the acidity, any sweetener, needed when the tomatoes are unripe. Fontanella is a true and authentic italian family before a company, and with each tin, they bring only the best Italian tomatoes.
