Description

The fluted, old Italian favorite that has been around since the early 19th century. Fruit are rather flattened and quite attractive with their deep ribbing. This variety is a standard in Italy for both fresh eating and preserving; known for its intensely flavorful, deep red flesh. This variety has also became very popular with chefs in this country.

My own review (2014)
Just love this tomato! It is beautiful, and it's the right one for a home made bruchetta! Red, deeply ribbed and flattend in shape. It has a great tomato flavour and it is juicy and meaty at the same time. Good in sauces or eating fresh!

A gourmet tomato and another favourite of mine!
