As black as the proverbial snooker ball, these consistently medium-sized fruits ripen make impressive shining trusses. The strongly-flavoured, exceedingly healthy fruits, red inside, are packed with valuable anthocyanins, and can stay on the vines right up to the first frosts of autumn, especially in a greenhouse, protected from bad weather and cracking by their perfect spheres of strong skin! Very rarely, the occasional one has the odd bizarre protuberance! We pick the last crop here in late October and even through November. New, and extremely attractive when sliced, when they reveal their juicy blood-red flesh. (Cordon)
