TSKHA ANNIVERSARY

TSKHA ANNIVERSARY is a table grape variety of medium-late ripening, bred at the Moscow Timiryazev Agricultural Academy. This variety is characterized by high yield and good winter hardiness, which exceeds the average level, but covering is recommended for wintering. Bushes have above-average growth force, and shoot maturation proceeds successfully, which contributes to stable fruiting with a coefficient of 0.8–0.9 and a percentage of bearing shoots of 65–72%. Yield on a good agro-fond reaches 16–23 tons per hectare. Leaves are medium or large, lanceolate, deeply lobed and five-lobed, with an open arched petiole notch. The lower surface of the leaf is covered with weak bristly pubescence, mainly along the veins. Bunches are large, weighing about 360 grams, cylindro-conical or conical in shape, of medium density or loose. Berries are large or very large, oval-round or elongated egg-shaped in shape, with a tough pink-red skin and fleshy pulp. The taste of berries is harmonious, which is confirmed by a high tasting score of fresh grapes — 8.2–8.5 points. Sugar content of berries is 14.6–17.0 g per 100 cm³, and titratable acidity varies from 5.5 to 6.2 g/dm³. The variety has increased resistance to fungal diseases and pests, which makes it a reliable choice for growing in various regions. Thanks to its qualities, TSKHA ANNIVERSARY is suitable for consumption fresh and can become an excellent addition to the table.
