History & Origin: A modern, trademarked clone developed by Griba Vivai in Italy, chosen from selective breeding and mutation monitoring to target changing climate conditions. Qualities & Sizing: Celebrated for its incredibly deep, nearly black-red velvet coloration. Fruit size runs medium-large and stays highly uniform across the canopy. Climate & Color Stability: Specifically bred for high climate resilience. It maintains outstanding color stability, high crispness, and dense flesh pressure even when grown in transitional, humid, or lower-chill foothill environments where other dark sports lose their texture or revert.
