Buffalo

The red grape variety is an interspecific new variety between Herbert x Watkins. Synonyms are Buffalo Muscat, Early Steuben, Fiorito, New York 10830 and NY 10830, which contain genes from Vitis labrusca and Vitis vinifera. The hybrid was crossed in 1921 by grower Richard Wellington at the Vine Breeding Institute of Cornell University in Geneva in the US state of New York. The variety was a crossing partner for the new varieties GR 7 and Vênus. The frost-hardy vine is very susceptible to powdery mildew. It is mainly used as table grape as well as for grape juice and grape jelly. In 2016, 0.1 ha was recorded in Switzerland (Kym AndersonAnderson Kym).

If I were to rate websites, you would deserve the highest rating. It is rare to come across websites that provide such a large amount of data and are still so intuitive to use. Respect for the lovingly researched and informatively prepared encyclopedia. Keep it up!
