Canadice
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Canadice is a cultivar of seedless red grape with a bit of a spicy flavor. It is a late season cultivar ripening about mid-September into October and is hardy up to -20 degrees Fahrenheit It is used as a table grape and is described as productive with a flavor similar to Delaware grapes. Also, these grapes come in large, cylindrical, and somewhat compact clusters and are medium in individual size. Downfalls of this particular grape is that it is highly susceptible or sensitive to black rot as well as moderately susceptible or sensitive to downy mildew and Botrytis. It is also slightyly susceptible or sensitive to powdery mildew. However, tests have shown that Canadice grapes will maintain a high quality for up to four months in storage with high post-harvest sulfur dioxide fumigation.
Canadice resulted from a cross of Bath by Himrod, and was released by the New York State Agricultural Experiment Station in Geneva, New York in 1977. Like several other releases from this program, it was named for one of the Finger Lakes, Canadice Lake.
