Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is a clone of the Rubín variety, distinguished by 40–50% less vigor, which ensures the compactness of the tree. The height of the plants reaches 2.7 meters. The variety possesses high winter hardiness, withstanding frosts down to -25°C, as well as resistance to scab and powdery mildew.

Fruits are large and very large, weighing from 160 to 350 g, having a spherical or spherical-conical shape. The surface is almost completely covered with an intense bright red or burgundy-red color. The flesh is yellowish, firm, juicy and crispy, with a sweet-wine taste.

Harvest maturity occurs at the end of September – beginning of October. The fruits are suitable for transportation and long-term storage; in a refrigerator, they can be kept until spring. The variety is intended for dessert use and is suitable for both amateur and commercial fruit growing.
