Description

The yellow date wine tomato is a classic among the rarities, because it feels very comfortable in the open field, but also in the pot and greenhouse and delights us with hundreds of delicious little fruits. The date wine tomato is a rich-bearing, old German variety and has been propagated for years by various non-profit associations, such as ARCHE NOAH e.V.. A confusingly similar tomato variety is the 'Yellow Submarine', but the 'Dattelwein' has more acidity in its flavor. The date wine tomato produces many small pear- to teardrop-shaped fruits in large clusters as early as mid-July. This pretty yellow tomato variety can be harvested until the first frost and even unripe fruits ripen very well on the windowsill. The yellow pears taste aromatically sweet and mild, making them wonderful snacking tomatoes for young and old. The yellow date wine tomato is a seed-resistant variety, from which you can obtain seeds yourself in late summer and sow them again the next year.
