Each year, more than 28,000 tons of fruit are harvested within three months. And the 2021 campaign looks promising.
"The fruit has received sunshine and not too much water. It's a clementine that is juicy, sour and has color. It's a bit like the sunshine of winter. It is picked, packaged, shipped this evening and will be on the shelves Saturday morning. We want the consumer to enjoy a fruit that has the same taste as if it were consumed in our orchards and on the trees," explains Pierre-Paul Monteil, citrus grower.
The Corsican clementine, benefiting from a PGI and recognizable by its two leaves and its green tail will be available until the end of the year.
