Our classic Carnaroli rice

All our Carnaroli rice comes from seeds certified by E.N.S.E. (Ente Nazionale Sementi Elette: National Selected Seed Association).
The term “Classic” indicates that this rice is 100% Carnaroli and does not include other similar varieties like Karnak or Carnise that can be sold as Carnaroli.
Our pure Classic Carnaroli variety is a perceptible, delicate type of rice.

The Tenuta Castello Carnaroli rice undergoes very light stone processing to “strip” the grain of rice as little as possible – thereby keeping more nutrients, more taste and a higher resistance to overcooking.
Its exceptional cooking properties and ability to increase volume by absorbing liquids, aromas, smells and seasoning is much higher than any other rice variety. This is why we always advise 70 g of rice per portion of risotto.
