Variety description

10 August 2026

The fruits are medium-sized, round, shiny, and bright red in color. The flesh is yellowish, juicy, crunchy, and aromatic, with a pleasant acidity. Fruit ripening occurs in mid-September; the variety is suitable for fresh consumption and culinary use.

The tree is of moderate vigor, reaching a height of 4–6 meters and having a harmonious, slightly rounded crown. Flowering occurs in May with white-pink flowers. A pollinator tree is required to obtain a yield.

The variety possesses resistance to scab and powdery mildew, which allows it to be used in organic farming. Intended primarily for private gardening.
