The peach has a bright red skin uniform with yellow-orange shades, an intense and persistent scent with soft, sweet, sugary and juicy pulp.
The Nectarine is instead bright red in color, with a glabrous skin, a fresh and fruity scent and a very consistent pulp, crunchy, aromatic and slightly less sweet than peach.
The richness in mineral salts, water and vitamins makes both fruits very moisturizing for the body and excellent sugar reserves and energy for the body, especially in the summer months when it is warmer and the organissimo needs these nutrients.
