Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree is moderately vigorous and forms a spreading crown. The variety is precocious and self-sterile; for fruiting, it requires the planting of pollinator varieties that bloom at the same time.

Fruits are medium to large in size (up to 300 g), round, and slightly flattened in shape. The skin is yellow with pinkish or red stripes, sometimes with brownish spots. The flesh is white, tender, crisp, juicy, and has an aromatic sweet taste.

The variety is classified as late: harvest maturity of the fruits occurs in October-November; they have good keeping quality and can be stored until winter or spring. The fruits are suitable for fresh consumption, culinary use, and cider production. The tree is winter-hardy and resistant to diseases.
