Plants

Bluebell resembles Concord in size and color but matures earlier and is more cold hardy than Concord.

Developed as a table grape, Edelweiss has medium-sized berries on large loose clusters. Wine is usually finished sweet and has pineapple overtones; fruit should be harvested at 14°- 16° brix to avoid strong Labrusca ...

Einset Seedless produces medium-sized clusters with oval, bright red berries with a light waxy bloom. Tender to firm flesh with Labrusca and strawberry character, medium-sized soft seed remnant is not usually noticeable.

Fredonia is an early Concord-type, ripening about two weeks earlier. Valued for both table grape production and for wine.

St. Croix produces wines that have been compared to a light to medium burgundy. Sugar content and tannins are low at maturity, but St. Croix has been used both as a varietal and for blending.

Venus is a dark-colored grape with foxy, muscat flavor. Berries are slipskin but often contain a noticeable seed trace.

Valiant is extremely winter hardy and produces small, compact clusters of small berries that ripen reliably. It is used for juice and jelly where other varieties are not hardy enough to be grown.
