Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree is medium-sized, exhibiting vigorous growth at a young age, which slows down with the onset of fruiting, reaching 2–4 meters in height depending on the rootstock. The variety is precocious, begins to bear fruit 2–3 years after planting, and is partially self-fertile.

Fruits are medium-sized, weighing 110–150 g, and have a rounded shape. The ground color of the skin is golden-yellow, complemented by an orange-red blush and red stripes. The flesh is creamy white, fine-grained, juicy, with a harmonious sweet and sour taste and a specific aroma.

The variety is classified as autumn; harvest maturity occurs from late August to September. It is relatively resistant to scab and powdery mildew, possesses moderate winter hardiness, and adapts well to various soil types and windy locations. It is susceptible to fire blight, apple tree canker, and spider mites.
