Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety forms a compact, upright bush with low to medium vigor. It belongs to the late-ripening group and is characterized by moderate yield. Berries of medium and small size contain a high level of acids, anthocyanins, and ascorbic acid, which makes them suitable for processing.

The plant possesses high winter hardiness and complex resistance to major diseases, including powdery mildew, as well as to blackcurrant bud mite and reversion virus. The variety is suitable for mechanical harvesting and is intended for industrial use, including the production of concentrates and frozen products.
