I have 3 small apples from Moldova.
Other than that, no information. They could be a Moldovan cultivar, a chance seedling, or a variety that originated elsewhere.
They are ribbed and oblate with a slight taper. Calyx open, color a very green tinted yellow with a patchy, streaky partial red blush.
One must peer at them closely to see the lenticels, even in the blush where they are small light dots. They sport a glossy peel.
These have a very rich aroma of sweet cider.
Crunch the crunch
This apple's fine-grained white flesh, with green highlights, crunches good!
It is sweet and slightly vinous with berries and a hint of
orange juice.
It's not strong, but there's a slightly unpleasant plasticky note in the mix, transitory. Otherwise very nice.
Looks like a dull Pionier from Romania
