	Niagara grape - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Niagara grapes are a variety of the North American grape species Vitis labrusca and are used as table grapes and for wines, as well as jams and juice.
		The Niagara grape was created in Niagara County, NY in 1868 when C.L. Hoag and B.W. Clark cross-bred Concord grapes with white Cassady grapes.
		In analyzing the Niagara grape, he detected aromas like candied lemon rind, a Riesling-like diesel aroma, flowery jasmine-like notes, and what he called "a high-toned, candied muskiness." This latter descriptor he felt was the primary element of the term "foxy".

		Niagara is a cross between the Concord and Cassady varieties.
		I suppose that the reasons for this aren't hard to understand: Niagara is one of the "foxiest" of the labrusca grapes, and it does share aromas similar to those of Concord.
		As the grapes begin to ripen and the methyl anthranilate begins to be noticeable, they initially give off sharp whiffs of mint, acacia blossoms and/or acacia honey.

	Unusual Wines - Niagara Grape Variety
		I got a bit of an education in the characteristics of the Niagara grape last year when, somewhat frustrated by the lack of quality varietal Niagara wine on the market here in Ontario, I decided to simply buy some grapes from a local grower and make wine from them at home.
		Thinking about the grape as representative of a genre, I am convinced that part of the problem in popularizing Niagara as material for quality wine lies not in its inherent aromas but rather in the often-cited belief that quality wine can't be made from the grape, which I believe is a mistaken notion.
		I think that Niagara should be seen as a viable white wine variety for backyard grape growers in Eastern North America and wherever else the grape is part of the local culture.

	Welch's Press Release: Concord Grape Prices Rise For Local Growers
		That demand was sparked, in large part this year, by a report that indicated purple grape juice may be beneficial to the heart because of its anti-clotting properties.
		The situation certainly is a far cry from the early 1980s when area grape growers were only getting $130 a ton or less for the grapes they brought in and inventories of the major processors were greater than a year's worth.
		Noting that Welch's receives more than 50% of the Concord grapes and 80% of the Niagara grapes in the United States, Dillon cited several major Welch's programs that have added to the demand for purple and white grape juice products in recent years.
