Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree is medium-sized or large with vigorous spreading growth, featuring a dense spherical crown with thin branches. Shoots are long, thin, two-colored yellowish-reddish with protruding buds. Leaves are small, elliptical, grey-green, short-pointed with a serrated edge, often folded like a boat.

Fruits weighing 120–170 g, round or blunt-ovate in shape. The thin skin at harvest is pale green, during ripening it acquires a yellow color, sometimes with an orange blush and small subcutaneous spots. The flesh is creamy, juicy, melting, with a pronounced muscat flavor.

The variety is a winter type, characterized by good winter hardiness in the conditions of Crimea, the North Caucasus, and the Don region. It is used primarily for dessert purposes, as well as an initial material in breeding programs for the study of genetic markers and morphological traits.
