Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree is medium-sized, reaching a height of up to 4 meters, with a broad-pyramidal weeping crown of medium density. Shoots are reddish-brown with appressed buds; leaves are small, rounded, with crenate-serrate margins.

Fruits are broad-obtuse-conical or broadly pear-shaped, weighing 90–200 g, with thin, smooth skin that turns golden-yellow with russet spots upon ripening. The flesh is juicy, delicate, buttery, free of stone cells, and has a sweet flavor with a muscat spice.

A winter-ripening variety: harvest maturity occurs at the end of October, consumer maturity from December to March. The variety is self-infertile, resistant to scab, responsive to fertile soils, and requires fruit thinning in years of heavy yield.
