Senatore Cappelli symbiotic penne are made only with durum wheat grown by Terre Alte Picene using the eco-sustainable symbiotic agriculture technique. The Senatore Cappelli durum wheat is an ancient wheat variety obtained by the geneticist and agronomist Nazareno Strampelli in the early 20th century. Characterized by an intense aroma and low gluten content, this wheat was a primary food source until the early 1970s. Due to its low productivity, it was later replaced by other more profitable wheats but with lower nutritional qualities. Because of the many beneficial properties and high digestibility of Senatore Cappelli, Terre Alte Picene has never stopped cultivating it.
