About this variety

A very early ripening, almost seedless blue table grape that is ready to harvest from the end of August, good for locations with a shorter season. It grows vigorously and bears reliably. The robust variety needs no pollinator, its flowers are hermaphrodite.
Dark blue, almost seedless berries, sweet and fruity with a cheerful strawberry and muscat note, one of the first grapes of the year for snacking.
