Elmer Swenson developed so many cold hardy grapes varieties that some of them almost got overlooked. Magenta (formerly known as E.S. 3-22-16) is one which somehow nearly missed the spotlight. These deep blue, mid-sized, slipskin berries are among the very sweetest with Brix levels around 23°. Both flavour and texture make this one of the better choices in hardy, seedless table grapes. Vine vigour and overall plant health are more good reasons to plant Magenta next to your arbor or pergola.
