Narrative
Type = French Hybrid. Per Munson (see citation): "Originated by Hermann Jaeger, Neosho, MO., by hybridizing his No. 43 Post-Oak grape with a select staminate vine of Rupestris, -a seedling of his Rupestris No. 60. In every way similiar to America, except its leaf, cluster and berry are smaller, and the quality is not so good. When well pollinated, it bears immense crops, and is a fine red wine grape." Per Bushburg Catalogue (see citation): "The wood, foliate and fruit of this variety with large clusters and berries of its parents plainly show the blending of the two widely varying species, and anybody familiar with Rupestris and Post-Oak Vines will admit that it is impossible to combine greater resistance to extremes of both cold and hot weather, as also to drought. The vine is fertile to a fault; inheriting from it's male parent the faculty of producing three bearing shoots from each bud, besides fertile shoots on old wood. Bunches and grapes are black, about the color and size of Ives, or a little smaller and generally less compact; ripens about two weeks before Norton and hangs long to the vine. It yields a claret wine of good body and intense ruby color, having just enough of the peculiar flavor of the Lincecummii grape to be admired by some for its fruity taste." Per Our Native Grape: "Black, extremely hardy and productive; bunch and berry nearly or quite as large as Ives, but less compact; it colors early and ripens about twelve days before Norton. When fully ripe it has some of the peculiar Lincecumii flavor which remains in the wine, a very dark rich claret, much admired in Missouri for its 'fruity'aroma."
