Variety description

10 August 2026

The name Primaticcio, also known as Marrone Primaticcio, Premutico, or Pelusiello, is used to designate a group of traditional Italian chestnut forms distributed in the Lazio region. The term indicates early fruit ripening times.

The burr typically contains one to three rounded nuts, which are characterized by sweet flesh and are easy to peel. The distribution of this ecotype is limited due to issues with agricultural techniques and low keeping quality of the fruit.
