Can you help me identify this peach?

Hi all, I am from Annandale Virginia. It is my first year of using pesticide. The crops are amazing this year. I wish i had done it earlier.

I bought "belle of georgia" peach about 5 yrs ago. We just finish harvesting today. The whole Tree ripen in 1.5 weeks 8/17 - 8/26. Turn out it's a yellow peach so I knew Lowes mislabled it. The peach is intense in flavor. A little bit more sour than sweet for me but lots of both. Very tasty. It is free stone, normal size (not the huge kinds). Very noticable amout of peach fuzz but wash off nicely. Every peach has some bacterial spot on it that covered 10% - 30% of the skin. 20% brown rotted. Tree is very healthy and vigorous. It's about 30% red blush, blended not sharp.
I just wondering what it can possibly be. So i can take care of it better. I also grafted some Winblo from Olpea last fall/winter. Do you know when they will ripen here in VA?

Thank you,

Kenny
