No, nectarines are not fuzzy; they are smooth-skinned from the start. Unlike peaches, which have a fuzzy exterior, nectarines are a result of a genetic mutation that prevents the development of fuzz. This characteristic gives nectarines their distinctive texture and appearance compared to their fuzzy counterparts.
