Table grape sweet, juicy, thin-skinned fruit has many of the same nutritional and medicinal qualities as do muscadine grapes, but in lower concentrations. Leaves are edible. Use for fresh eating, juices, wines, or fruit jellies or preserves.
Varieties include:
‘Sunbelt’ – Fruit are large in size, small clusters, blue color, sweet, good flavor, and early to mid season. Plants are very hardy and have vigorous growth habits. Sunbelt is very similar to Concord but ripens more evenly and has better resistance to mildews. Sunbelt also does better in warmer climates than Concord.
