The enveloping sweetness of figs meets the velvety freshness of peaches in a sun-kissed combination.

The Fig and Peach Compote of Roncaglia Farm, Bricherasio (TO)

The Fig and Peach Compote from Azienda Agricola Roncaglia is a tribute to the generosity of the Piedmontese land during the summer season. This specialty is distinguished by its extremely high concentration of raw materials: 106 grams of fresh fruit are used to obtain 100 grams of finished product. This processing technique, which involves slow natural evaporation, concentrates the fruit's flavors and sugars without altering its color or organoleptic properties, ensuring a dense, chunky consistency.

Produced in Bricherasio, this compote combines the plumpness of figs (39%) with the fragrance of peaches (38%), creating a perfect balance where the honeyed sweetness of the former is refreshed by the slightly acidic and aromatic note of the latter. The ingredient list is extremely short: only fruit and sugar, without the addition of pectin, preservatives, or colorings, to offer a taste experience reminiscent of traditional home-made preparations, but with the rigorous quality of a top-quality farm.

Each spoonful reveals the care taken in selecting the fruit, harvested at the perfect stage of ripeness in the Roncaglia orchards. This preserve is designed for those who aren't satisfied with standard industrial jams and are looking for an authentic agricultural product, capable of expressing its local origins and the passion of those who work the land with dedication through its flavor.
 
 
 

The roots of this Fig and Peach Compote are deep in tradition

The pairing of figs and peaches is a tradition in the hilly areas of Piedmont, where these fruits ripen almost simultaneously, filling pantries with intoxicating aromas. The rural tradition of Bricherasio called for the use of firm-fleshed peaches and sweet figs to create preserves that would brighten breakfasts during Turin's harsh winters. Azienda Agricola Roncaglia has preserved this recipe, maintaining the low-temperature cooking method that preserves the fruit's natural flavor.

In ancient times, compotes were considered a precious commodity, the fruit of patience and mastery in balancing the available fruit varieties. Today, Roncaglia honors this past by selecting local varieties that guarantee superior aromatics. Choosing this product means rediscovering the value of time and seasonality, bringing to the table a specialty that symbolizes a rural culture that refuses to be lost.
