Hi: my Kenneth's Piennolo bunch lasted somewhere between 30-45 days, hung up in a dark area, before a couple tomatoes began to rot. Not wanting that to spread, I stashed the remaining good ones in the freezer.
Fresh, they made an amazing quick sauce for noodles - probably better than any of my other tomatoes. The first few to ripe were very dry and almost hollow on the inside, but the next several bunches turned out very well. If I decide to grow tomatoes next year, these will definitely be on the list.
I would really like to try growing ramallet some day. Not sure my conditions will allow for storage beyond 30-45 days, it might be because my area is too humid (65-85% relative humidity most of the time at moderate temperatures). Oh, well, this was fun and I hope a few others from this forum will give the Piennolo a go!
