These grapes are basically a wine making grape. Six pounds were obtained from the vine, for a total weight of 7 lbs, and reduced to 6 lbs when removed from the clusters. The juice is a nice dark colour and pleasant to drink. It may be thinned with water, but I prefer the pure juice of the grape. A pound of grapes produces about a cup of juice. The clusters are very crowded, and the grapes are smaller than say the typical Concord variety.
