10 August 2026
The bush is characterized by vigorous growth and a wide spreading habit. One of the key features of the variety is its very long clusters. The berries have a pronounced aroma and high acidity.
The variety is self-fertile; the presence of another variety on the plot contributes to increased yield. Flowering begins in early May, and berry ripening starts in early July. Currently, it is more often found in collections as historical and genetic material.
