Passion and tradition
Who lives in these Apennine places, with a luxuriant and rich nature, has to go to TARTUFI in the blood. From an early age one is attracted by the passion and the “knowledge” of the old quarrymen. The old generations, in fact, revealing the secrets of this profession, introduce you to a wise relationship with nature and with the search dog.
Thus began, for Massimo and Mattia, the “Search” for truffles together with their mentors who, even today, remain an important reference and yardstick for their business as merchants. Even so they guarantee customers the highest quality and selection.
