Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree has moderate growth vigor and forms a spreading, branched crown. Fruiting occurs both on spurs and long shoots. The variety is characterized by genetic resistance to scab and low susceptibility to powdery mildew and stem canker.

Fruits are medium to large in size, conical in shape. The overcolor is red or dark red, covering 70–90% of the surface. The flesh is cream or yellowish, firm, crisp, and juicy; the taste is sweet with slight acidity.

The variety is of late maturity. Fruits have high keeping quality: they store for 4 to 6 months under normal conditions, and up to 10–12 months or longer under controlled atmosphere conditions.
