The standard of risotto is redefined with this exclusive line of hand-selected Italian rice grown at the Principato di Lucedio estate. Harvested, sorted, and dried with care, this rice is shipped fresh in cloth bags to maintain its high quality and flavor.

From Lucedio's centuries-old tradition comes the best available superfino rice for traditional, creamy Italian risotto. Located near Torino in the Piemonte region of northern Italy, Lucedio was built in 1184 by Cisterian monks, and is now considered one of Italy's finest rice-growing estates. Its owner, the Contessa Rosetta Clara Cavalli d'Olivola, has reopened her traditional "fattoria" for the cultivation of Italy's best rice.

Harvested in October and shipped fresh, Principato di Lucedio's rice have no equals. A medium grain rice, originally from the Mantova and Veneto regions. Vialone Nano is shorter and thicker than Arborio and holds twice its weight in liquid, creating a very hearty risotto. Excellent paired with fish.
