I have started a vineyard with some typical concord grapes. What is a good type of grape to grow in a vineyard?

Thank you

The best varieties of grape depend on your growing conditions and on what you want to do with the grapes. Concords are often grown because they are able to handle diverse growing conditions, but they are most often used for jelly rather than wine or fresh eating. You may find the following articles about grapes in Nebraska helpful. I would also suggest you contact your local University of Nebraska extension office for specific recommendations based on your needs and goals.
