I found Dr. Carolyn only so-so as far as taste and yeild when I grew it in
Atlanta; will try it again in Texas next season. Riesentraube is on my list
of "yummers". And the 1999 AAS winner hybrid "Juliet" is very good. Fruit is
elongated and won't crack, so it's a blessing for those of us who live in
areas prone to lots of "dumping" rain. Bears in clusters like grapes and is
tolerant of late blight. Very, very productive for everybody I've talked
with who has grown it. And tastes *very good*.
