Abstract

A new and distinct asexually reproduced grapevine variety, as illustrated and described, is vigorous and highly productive, ripens early before frost, withstands temperatures below -18° C., fruits in fairly large open bunches with large shoulders, the fruit being red to dark maroon/oxblood red with a heavy bloom and having one of the highest Brix or sugar test of any labrusca grape reported in the Grape and Wine Research Summary for 1984 published by the Horticultural Research Institute of Ontario, Vineland Station, Ontario, Canada. The plant is resistant to mildew and does not require thinning. The fruit has a long shelf life and has proven to be excellent for jam, jelly and sweet, dessert wine.

Description

The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of grapevine, named "Kat.E.Lin", which was discovered by us as a mutant of the Concord (Labrusca) variety, said discovery having occurred in our vineyard at Smithville, Ontario, Canada.
This new grape is characterized by early ripening fruit which matures well before frost in Ontario, Canada; by its ability to withstand temperatures below -18° C.; by its large open bunches of fruit which are easily sprayed and mechanically harvested; by its fruit colour which is dark maroon red with a heavy bloom; by its large shouldered bunches; by its very high sugar content; and by its excellent rating for sweet dessert wine, jelly and table use.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The present mutant was discovered in our own vineyard at Smithville, Ontario, Canada in the 1960 growin season among twenty-five acres of Concord grapes which had been planted in the year 1925. It took three years for the original vine to bear fruit. Cuttings were taken in the fall of 1960, planted in 1961 and bore fruit in 1964. Propagation was carried out by taking two or three node cuttings in February, bundling in 10's and burying upsidedown in the ground, covered by two inches of soil. Cuttings were replanted in a nursery row eight weeks later.

The new mutant is vigorous and productive and ripens well before frost. Fruiting wood withstands temperatures below -18° C. It produces fairly large open bunches with large shoulders. The fruit is red to dark maroon/oxblood red. It has high dissolved solids (Brix readings), exceeding those of many varieties noted in the Grape and Wine Research Summary for the year 1984, published by the Horticultural Research Institute of Ontario, Vineland Station, Ontario. The plant is resistant to mildew and does not require thinning to attain commercially acceptable berry size or fruit quality. The fruit has a long shelf life and has proven an excellent product for jam, jelly and sweet dessert wine.
