Fox Grape (Vitis labrusca)
Estimated delivery between 三月 28 and 三月 31.
The Fox Grape, scientifically known as Vitis labrusca, is a wild grape native to North America, particularly in the northeastern and central United States. Known for its bold, aromatic flavor, the Fox Grape is most famously associated with the Concord grape variety, which has a distinct, sweet, and slightly musky taste. Fox Grapes are smaller than cultivated grapes but pack a punch in flavor, making them ideal for making juices, jellies, wines, and other preserves. With their rich heritage and versatile use, Fox Grapes are a beloved fruit with a strong connection to traditional American food culture.
Features:
- Distinctive Musky Flavor: The Fox Grape has a bold, robust flavor with a musky aroma. Its sweet yet tangy profile makes it perfect for fresh consumption or for use in cooking and preserving.
- Small and Deeply Colored: The Fox Grape is typically dark purple to black when ripe, with a rich, almost bluish hue. It’s smaller than many cultivated varieties of grape, but the flavor is packed into every bite.
- High in Nutrients: Like other grapes, the Fox Grape is rich in antioxidants, vitamins (especially Vitamin C), and fiber, contributing to heart health, immune support, and digestion.
- Versatile Use: While Fox Grapes are most commonly used in making grape juice, jelly, and wine, they can also be enjoyed fresh, used in baking, or transformed into sauces, syrups, and even salads.
- Traditional American Connection: The Fox Grape has a deep historical connection to American culture, especially in the creation of iconic products like Concord grape juice and jellies.
Specifications:
- Scientific Name: Vitis labrusca
- Common Name: Fox Grape, Wild Concord Grape, American Grape
- Size: Small, typically about 1/2 inch in diameter
- Origin: Native to North America, especially the northeastern and central regions of the United States

- Storage: Store fresh Fox Grapes in the refrigerator. To preserve them longer, freeze them or turn them into jams and jellies.
Usage Ideas:
- Grape Juice & Jelly: Fox Grapes are the perfect fruit for making homemade grape juice or jelly. Their rich, tangy flavor pairs beautifully with sugar to create a sweet, flavorful spread or drink.
- Homemade Wine: The Fox Grape is famous for its use in Concord wine, which has a deep, bold flavor that pairs well with savory dishes or is enjoyed on its own.
- Fresh Snacking: Enjoy Fox Grapes fresh for a sweet, tangy snack, or combine them with cheese, nuts, or other fruits in salads or fruit platters.
- Baking & Desserts: Use Fox Grapes in pies, tarts, or cakes for a deliciously fruity twist. They also pair well with chocolate in desserts like brownies or truffles.
