Molino Paolo Mariani is a story that lives and breathes through time, handed down like a treasure from one generation to the next. Our family proudly upholds a tradition rooted in the art of milling, blending past and present to create flours that express all the authenticity of the Italian land. We work alongside farmers who have in-depth knowledge of the earth and respect for its natural rhythm, transforming Italy’s finest grains into products that reflect our passion and dedication.
 

OUR HISTORY 
FOUR GENERATIONS OF MILLERS 
Our journey began in the early twentieth century when Quinto Mariani took ownership of an old mill. With the power of the Nevola river water and his own resourcefulness, he sowed the seeds of a dream that would nourish generations. In the 1950s, his son, Urbano Mariani, injected new life into the family trade by bringing the Mill electrical energy and an innovative outlook while remaining true to tradition. This evolutionary journey was continued by Paolo Mariani, who made his mark on the family business by adding his name to it. Today, the fourth generation responsibly and dedicatedly safeguards this ancient craft, interwoven with the very history of humanity, blending past and future in every particle of flour.
 

OUR LOCAL AREA 
We have our roots in a land suspended between the sea and the mountains, where the gentle Marche hills blend with the sea breeze to create a perfect climate for cultivating Italy’s finest grains. This symbiosis is the underlying secret behind our excellent production: a unique environment generating authentic products of outstanding quality.
 

OUR MILLING ART 
We believe each grain of wheat is unique and worthy of special care, and use a customised milling process that reflects and highlights the intrinsic features of every variety. Like a craftsman sculpting his material, our work brings out the hidden essence of wheat, revealing its authentic aromas, consistencies and flavours. This is an ancient art requiring dedication and sensitivity to enable those working with flour to rediscover and enhance the purity of each individual grain, transforming it into bread, cakes and pasta that speak of tradition and passion.

OUR 100% ITALIAN WHEAT 
Each grain of wheat is a universe in itself, seemingly simple yet rich in nuances, aromas and colours that tell stories of the earth and sun. To fully capture their essence, we study them with care and respect, starting with our family farm.  Here, in the heart of the Marche region, we have transformed our experimental fields into open-air laboratories: research spaces for developing the different wheat varieties. This ongoing commitment enables us to pass on and perfect the secret of Italy’s finest grains.


OUR ACTIVE SUPPLY CHAIN 
We have always worked with farmers who we know on an individual basis and are guardians of a ‘local memory’ that strengthens our deep bond with our land. Together, year after year, we renew our commitment to cultivating and developing sustainable and high-quality farming.
