Radicchio Rosa dell'Isonzo®

Radicchio Rosa dell'Isonzo® is derived from simple chicory, in particular from the Asteraceae family - genus Cichorium - species intybus - subspecies sativa, and from such an ordinary ecotype this lidric (radicchio, in fact) has become, throughout its history, an extraordinary product: "an herbage that becomes a flower "1, with the unmistakable shape of a blossomed rose, which gives this vegetable a rare aesthetic value, in addition to its taste.
