Brocton

The white grape variety (also Brockton, New York 3345) is an interspecific new variety between Brighton x New York 125 (Winchell x Moore's Diamond). It contains genes from Vitis labrusca and Vitis vinifera. The hybrid was crossed in 1899 by the breeder S. A. Beach at the Vine Breeding Institute of Cornell University in Geneva (New York). It was a crossing partner in the new variety Hector. The vine is mainly used as table grape. No stock was reported in 2016 (Kym Anderson statistics).
