Colors with Undefined Names 12. Catawba Color 159 - #703642
Vitis labrusca -
Catawba is a red American grape variety used for wine as well as juice, jams
and jellies. The grape can have a pronounced musky or "foxy" flavor. Grown
predominantly on the East Coast of the United States, this purplish-red grape
is a likely cross of the native American Vitis labrusca and another Vitis
species, potentially even Vitis vinifera. Its exact origins and parentage are
unclear but it seems to have originated somewhere on the East coast from the
Carolinas to Maryland.
