TASHLY

TASHLY is a Crimean variety of late-maturing grape intended for universal use, including the production of table, dessert, and fortified wines, as well as must and juices. The bushes are medium-sized or vigorous with a functionally female flower type. Leaves are of medium size, deeply lobed, with moderate pubescence, and can be three- or five-lobed. Bunches are of medium size, cylindrical-conical in shape, and can be dense or loose. Berries are round, greenish-yellow, with fleshy pulp and a weak muscat aftertaste, containing small seeds. The juice from the berries is colorless, with a sugar content of about 20.3 g per 100 cm³ and titratable acidity of 7 g per dm³. The taste of the must is harmonious and full, with light muscat-limon notes, and the aroma is bright, floral with honey nuances. The yield of the variety is high, averaging 116.1 centners per hectare, but can be unstable. The variety has good winter hardiness, withstands temperatures up to -21 °C, and has moderate resistance to diseases such as downy mildew, powdery mildew, and gray rot. TASHLY prefers protected areas with sandy soils, which contributes to its successful cultivation in Crimea. Due to its characteristics and taste qualities, the variety is widely used both in fresh form and for the production of various types of wines, including table and fortified, making it valuable for regional winemakers.
