Fredonia

 

Once it reaches maturity, the entire cluster ripens all at once!

 

Ce cépage est souvent appelé «Early Concord» que l’on pourrait traduire par «Concord précoce» pour signifier qu’il possède des caractéristiques très similaires au légendaire Concord, mais arrive à maturité plus rapidement que celui-ci.
