Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree of medium vigor reaches a height of 3.5–5 meters and has a compact crown. The variety is self-incompatible; pollinators such as Friar, Santa Rosa, Golden Japan, or Queen Victoria are required to obtain a yield.

The fruits are large, weighing 80–130 g, round in shape, and slightly flattened. Upon ripening, the skin becomes almost black with a glaucous bloom. The flesh is amber-yellow, juicy and firm; the stone separates well.

The variety is mid-season or mid-late; harvesting occurs from late July to the end of August. The plant is characterized by medium winter hardiness and high disease resistance, and requires fruit thinning during abundant fruiting.
