Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety has medium or above-average vigor with good shoot maturation. It belongs to the PIWI category, possesses high winter hardiness and increased resistance to downy mildew, powdery mildew, and grey mold, although in unfavorable years it may require preventive treatment against powdery mildew.

Bunches are medium-sized, dense, and cylindrical-conical in shape. Berries are small or medium, round, light green in color with a pink hue, covered with a thin skin. The ripening period is medium or medium-late.

Wines from this variety are distinguished by intensity, good acidity, and an aromatic profile reminiscent of Riesling or Sauvignon Blanc with notes of exotic fruits, linden blossom, peach, and apple. The variety is used for creating high-quality white wines, including ice wines.
