Poll: Your favourite grape?

[Eddi]

I am just about to eat a bunch of grapes, nice and chilled from the fridge

Very juicy and refreshing

But what is your favourite type of grape?

Also, what do you think of grapes with seeds in?

Personally I prefer seedless grapes...... but how on Earth do seedless grapes reproduce??????

fermented

Red.

Seedless are easier to eat and probably more hygienic, but I'm not bothered by seeds.

Propagation. A branch from a seedless grape plant is planted from another seedless grape plant.

Black muscat are my favourite, quite small, very sweet and juicy.
We have a vine growing on the veranda. I love October when you can fancy some grapes and walk outside to pick a bunch.

Did I mention I hate you?

It's not about the color, it's about the variety and the grower.

Something you learn if you ever have anything other than grapes produced by industrial agriculture that you buy in some store.

The best grapes are the ones grown by one local farmstead at market in late Summer. They are smaller. They have seeds. They have more flavor.

I had a tomato plant growing on the patio a few years ago.

Somehow, that doesn't seem quite as fancy.

Black, Sable, seedless.

Gilbert. Duh….

Would concord be considered "red'?

 

[Jayhawker Soule]

Cabernet Sauvignon

 

[SalixIncendium]

Black

I'd be interested in trying one. Sadly, most stores near us have but two options. Red and green. Like Christmas.

Probably. I consider it "red."

I've had those!

I think they are the best variety, the ultimate grape!

How poop. Red are pointless, white are ok. Black are like tiny bursts of a full red wine.

Of typical table grapes? I go with red. My housemate likes the green

Also, what do you think of grapes with seeds in?

Easier to eat, they may have less flavor. They make up for that with ease of eating.

Cuttings. As already told to you. They are all clones of the original seedless plant.

M&S come on down. A bunch lasts about a day.

Commercial fruits and veg are horrible. I understand why people don't want to eat them.

Black. The darker the berry, the sweeter the juice
