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!

 - RECOMENDED!

My own review
 This was a big suprise! My tomato plant was a good producer of big, red paste tomatoes! Though this  is a late season variety, my first tomatoes got ripe after 75 days! The taste is great!
I've been using this tomato for sauce Cooking, and the result is a thik'n tasty tomato sause!

This is one of my favourite paste tomatoes.
A PERFECT SAUCE TOMATO!
