Small peaches, wine vinegar, water, sugar, salt
Unexpected Origin: Peschiole in agrodolce were born in the 1990s due to a production error. Agronomist Mario Parente ordered nectarine peach trees, but the resulting fruit wasn't marketable. During the first thinning, the small unripe peaches were harvested and processed like vegetables. This transformation was a success, and peschiole won the First Prize Oscar at Cibus, the International Food Exhibition, two years later. After thorough washing, peschiole are cooked in water and flavored vinegar and preserved in glass jars without preservatives. This method gives them a strong flavor and a crunchy texture, making them ideal for aperitifs and appetizers.

The peach orchards were born by chance in the 1990s, then transformed by the astute agricultural skills of father Salvatore. After planting peaches of nectarine quality, he realised that the product was not marketable; it was ripe, but it did not exceed the quality standards that distinguish the company. Hence the intuition that nothing should go to waste: during the first thinning out of the fruit, he picked and processed the small, unripe peaches, achieving two results: not overloading the plant, so that the remaining fruit grows luxuriantly, and giving life to the sweet and sour peach cherries. The peach cherries look like olives, they have the same shape, colour and size, but they are actually peach fruits picked when they are still green, when they measure one or two centimetres and the stone has not yet hardened.
After being thoroughly washed, they are boiled in water and aromatised vinegar, a particularly fine vinegar made from the Asprinia grape from the Agro-Aversano area, and then stored in glass jars. The conservation is natural, without preservatives, external agents or chemicals. Aesthetically, they resemble olives in shape, colour and size, measuring between 2 and 3 cm.
Peaches can be served and tasted in many different ways: as an aperitif, in cocktails, in sea and land salads, with cod and even with refined dishes. Their special flavour makes them a versatile accompaniment for all occasions.
Their flavour is strong and distinctive and their texture is crunchy and firm. This is a recipe that has only recently become known in the world of gastronomy and gourmet cuisine; its commercialisation began in 1989 thanks to the Verticelli company.
