Make a Grape Decision now....
Variety grape season here! From mid July to early September it’s considered the peak of the variety grape season for California grapes (mostly grown in the Central Valley around Bakersfield and surrounding cities). Melissa's Produce is known for their exclusive variety of California grown Muscato Grapes available in Red, Black and Green.
Also, available for the first time this year is Melissa's Tri-Color Muscato Grape Pack--all Melissa's Muscato grape varieties are seedless. Also highlighted to the listing of exciting and sweet tasting grapes this season includes California Grown Champagne Grapes.
These are the smallest sized grape by far and one of the sweetest. These are not the grapes that you actually make Champagne from and this variety is seedless too.
Also, newer to the Melissa's line of the sweetest, great tasting California grapes are the Melissa's Jelly Drops Grapes. They taste similar to Concord Grapes (common jelly type grapes), but are seedless and have an edible skinned variety, too.
Melissa’s Produce can be purchased locally at grocery stores and supermarkets as well as online.
