Isabella grape jam – 220 gr

An intense and tannic aroma and a sweet taste reminiscent of ripe strawberries: the Isabella grape is a real delicacy! It has small and dark grains, with a juicy pulp. This particular variety was imported from the United States in the first half of the 19th century, when the phylloxera epidemic was destroying all the old European vines. In addition to being delicious, the Isabella grape is, in fact, incredibly resistant to pests and low temperatures.

The Isabella grape jam has a dense consistency. The berries are simply cooked in an uncovered pot according to traditional processing, and retain all the taste and smell of fresh fruit. It is great for a rustic tart, to stuff cookies or to enrich a cup of yogurt, but it also goes well with semi-mature cheeses and venison.

The Si.Gi. farm was born out of the passion of the couple Silvano Buccolini and Giuliana Papa for the forgotten fruits of their land which is located next to Macerata. After having started to grow ancient fruit varieties, Silvano and Giuliana opened a lab where they make the most typical jams and fruit preserves. These jars only contain genuine fruit, simple and natural processing methods, traditional tools and cooking methods - such as boiling in an uncovered pot - and, of course, the flavour of delicacies belonging to a bygone era.
