Malus domestica 'Dabinett'
An annual, heavy bearer of medium-to-large size, round, red, and intensely fragrant apples. Dabinett originates from the traditional cider region of Somerset, England in the mid-19th century as a possible seedling of Chisel Jersey. Venerated for the intense fragrance notes it adds to ciders, this "bittersweet" yields a juice that is astringent and high in fruity tannins and is usually added to blends, but can make a good single-variety cider as well. From WSU: Tannin (percent tannic acid): 0.24; Acid (percent malic acid): 0.22; pH: 4.41; SG: 1.055; oBrix 13.5
Late to bloom and to ripen. Considered easy to grow and relatively disease-resistant, with good resistance to fireblight and some resistance to mildew, rust, canker and scab. It tends to overset and can benefit from early thinning to keep fruit size up.
