Narrative

Type = Table. Per Hedrick (see citation): "Eldorado is one of the best flavored of all early green grapes but unfortunately it has defects which have kept it from becoming popular and it is now rapidly passing from cultivation. It is delicately flavored, with a very distinct aroma and taste; the flesh is tender, melting and sweet from skin to seeds, all qualities very rarely found in an early grape. The season is about that of Moore Early, a time when there are few other really good white grapes Eldorado is a full sister of Lady Washington and is if anything better flavored than that most excellent variety. These two grapes are secondary hybrids of Labrusca and Vinefera, Concord being the native parent. The vines inherit most of the good qualities of Concord but Eldorado does not inherit Concord's ability to set fruit well; even with cross-pollination it sometimes fails to bear and is not worth growning unless planted in a mixed vineyard. The clusters are often small and straggling under the best possible conditions that the variety cannot be highly recommended to the amateur yet its delightful flavor and its earliness may commend it to some."
