€ 4,68 for 1kg
Piedmont is one of the regions with the oldest tradition of apple production in Italy. Even before South Tyrol. There are still cultivars grown here that have already disappeared in other regions. The territory of the Varaita Valley is ideal for their production. River lands that stretch in a valley that narrows increasingly as it climbs towards the mountain and the Monviso group. Particularly airy climate that prevents the proliferation of pests and thus drastically reduces phytosanitary treatments. The young people of Monvisotta implement hormonal sexual confusion and thus through traps they manage to carry out their apple cultivation activity. The environment is clean, in the valley, and at high altitude. These are the first early apples! The quality that arrives first in this valley and anticipates the others, better known as the Royal Gala.
The Royal Gala are apples that have yellow and red stripes, depending on where the sun has hit the skin. They are particularly sweet and juicy. They remain crisp for quite a long time if kept cool and well stored at 1 to 8 °C, even up to 180 days. They have a nice acidity but stand out for their intense flavor and sweetness. These are of tall stature, so the acidity is higher, making them more suitable for fruit salads and typical apple-based desserts where the slices can maintain a better crispness even after cooking. We also recommend them for enriching your lettuce and cherry tomato salads. Pair them with fresh goat cheeses!
