Melinda has confirmed it will produce late cherries during the 2022 season, thus extending the calendar until mid-summer.

We are lucky enough to have found a ready market, which has already absorbed the productions of southern Italy and Emilia-Romagna. We will bring the two best current varieties, Kordia and Regina,” said marketing manager Andrea Fedrizzi.
