Fresh Truffle All Year Round: Season Calendar for All 4 Varieties

At Valle Trufa we work with 4 varieties of fresh truffle, each with its own season. That means that, apart from a short gap early in the year, there's almost always a fresh truffle available or about to come into season. Here are all 4, with their exact dates, so you know which one to buy at any time of year.

Fresh truffle season calendar

• May – September: Summer Black Truffle (Tuber Aestivum) — the longest season, perfect for enjoying fresh truffle in the warmer months. See Summer Black Truffle
• September – December: Uncinatum Black Truffle (Autumn Truffle) — the perfect bridge between summer and the start of white truffle season. See Uncinatum Black Truffle
• October – December: White Truffle Tuber Magnatum — the most exclusive and sought-after in haute cuisine worldwide, of Italian origin. See White Truffle Tuber Magnatum
• November – March: Melanosporum Black Truffle — the winter black diamond, with a powerful, earthy aroma. See Melanosporum Black Truffle

As you can see, there's almost always a fresh truffle available between May and December, and from September to December up to 3 varieties even overlap. If you're unsure which one to choose for your occasion or recipe, get in touch and we'll advise you with no obligation.
