Variety description

10 August 2026

The bush is medium-sized, reaching a height of 1 to 1.5 meters, and has an upright or slightly spreading form. The variety is characterized by high resistance to powdery mildew and other fungal diseases, as well as good winter hardiness. The plant is sensitive to prolonged drought but resistant to wind exposure.

Berries weighing 4–6 g have a spherical shape and slightly pubescent skin of red or red-violet color. The taste of the berries is described as sweet-spicy with a light wine aftertaste. The variety is universal: the berries are suitable for fresh consumption, culinary processing, or harvesting at the stage of technical maturity.
