Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is late-ripening; harvest takes place in October. The tree is characterized as very vigorous, reaching 4–5 meters in height on MM106 rootstock. The variety is distinguished by high disease resistance and ease of care.

Fruits are round in shape, medium-sized, covered with smooth, shiny skin with numerous light lenticels. The flesh is creamy-white, firm, fine-grained, and juicy. The flavor is balanced, sweet, with a slight acidity. The variety is self-infertile and requires pollinator varieties, such as Golden Pearmain, Golden Delicious, or Idared.

The fruits are suitable for fresh consumption as well as culinary processing, as they retain their shape when baked or used in pies. Under proper storage conditions, the apples can be kept until March-April.
