Early Korvik

The cherry captivates by an extra aromatic taste with a fine sourishness key, yet delightful sweet with elegant wine aromas. Its large, longish, heart-shaped fruit is eminently firm, juicy and purple with tinting juice. And Early Korvik has an extraordinary long harvesting window. As the fruits ripens uniformly, harvesting in one single operation is possible – and the cherries can be picked very easily. The tree branches excellently with consistent vigorous fruiting wood.
