The Hazelnuts of the
Albertengo agricultural estate
The Albertengo family believes and invests in the territory: since 2012, they have started an agricultural project to produce IGP Piedmont hazelnuts from the Langhe in Alta Langa, recognised as the best hazelnut in the world.
Today it is the Tenuta San Giorgio Pian delle Violette in Levice, a small municipality where the land is very suitable for hazelnut cultivation: to date, there are 8 thousand plants in 15 hectares all planted with hazelnuts.
The harvest is used to produce the icing and decorate the Albertengo Panettoni with whole hazelnuts.
