Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree is characterized by vigorous growth and a spreading crown. Depending on the rootstock and training system, the height can vary from 3 to 8 meters. The variety is triploid, therefore it requires two compatible pollinator varieties for fruit set and is not a pollinator itself.

The fruits are medium to large in size, round, and slightly flattened in shape. The skin is golden-yellow with an orange-red blush, stripes, and areas of russeting. The flesh is cream-colored, firm, crisp, and juicy. The variety is suitable for fresh consumption and culinary processing.

Harvesting occurs in late September or October; the fruits are suitable for storage until February. The variety is resistant to scab, however, it possesses moderate to high susceptibility to powdery mildew, canker, and may be prone to bitter pit.
