Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is an ancient local landrace selected by farmers in the Cuneo province and included in the list of varieties with the Castagna Cuneo protected geographical indication. The fruits are small in size, possess high sweetness, and are easily peeled, which makes them suitable for industrial confectionery processing.

Studies of the variety's genetic material record specific characteristics of leaf shape and the structure of male inflorescences, including the presence of clonal variations in male flower types. Detailed agronomic data regarding tree height, maturity timing, and disease resistance are absent from publications.
