Palomino


(Vinifera)



Golden Chasselas, Listan



This variety seems to be grown in California under the three names

given--while in France Palomino is described as a bluish-black grape.

Palomino seems to be grown commonly in California as a table-grape and

is worth trying in eastern America. The variety received under the

name Palomino from California at the New York Experiment Station has

the following characters, agreeing closely with those set down by

Californian viticulturists:



Fruit ripens about the 20th of October, keeping qualities good;

clusters medium to large, long, single-shouldered, tapering,

loose; berries medium to small, roundish, pale greenish-yellow,

thin bloom; skin and the adhering flesh medium tender and crisp,

flesh surrounding seeds melting; flavor sweet, vinous; quality

good.
