Gilroy, CA — This summer, Christopher Ranch is celebrating Monviso, the Italian heirloom garlic at the foundation of the company’s premium garlic tradition, while introducing new packaging that features the Monviso varietal name.
Over fifty years ago, Don Christopher, the company founder, came upon the most flavorful variety of garlic he had ever tasted. As its origins were in the Piedmont area of Italy, he christened the variety “Monviso” for the region’s peaks and immediately set about nurturing the seed on his ranch in California’s Santa Clara Valley. Five decades later, Christopher Ranch proudly continues to cultivate and harvest the Monviso varietal exclusively, choosing to deliver garlic of exceptional flavor rather than plant higher yielding, inferior tasting varieties. In fact, Christopher Ranch Monviso garlic is the only heirloom garlic commercially grown in the U.S. today.
