King of the North Grape Details
KING OF THE NORTH: Very winter-hardy (-37 deg. F) labrusca cultivar. Extraordinarily vigorous vine that establishes early and heavily bears fruit at a young age. Ripens around mid-late September. Has unfortunate susceptibility to Downy Mildew. Flavorful as a sweet table grape and makes excellent red juice suitable for wine. No other details as yet.
