Abstract
‘Sterling’ is a bronze-fruited Vitis rotundifolia Michx. cultivar released by the North Carolina Agricultural Research Service. It is perfect-flowered, self-fruitful, productive, winter-hardy in muscadine growing areas, vigorous and resistant to berry shatter. When ripe, it picks with a reasonably good stem scar and has 6.5-g fruit. ‘Sterling’ is suited for pick-your-own and fresh fruit sales and can be made into a white wine comparable to that of ‘Scuppemong’ and ‘Carlos’.Keywords
