Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree is vigorous, with a spreading rounded crown and glossy dark green foliage. The fruits are large, round or slightly flattened in shape, with light yellow skin, often having a pink-red blush.

The fruit flesh is of a deep crimson color, distinguished by high juiciness, sweetness, and a mild flavor due to a reduced naringin content. The variety is practically seedless, containing from 0 to 3 seeds. Fruit ripening occurs in the winter period.
