Vitis riparia Michx, with common names riverbank grape or frost grape, [1] is a vine indigenous to North America.As a climbing or trailing vine, it is widely distributed across central and eastern Canada and the central and northeastern parts of the United States, from Quebec to Texas, and eastern Montana to Nova Scotia.
The fruit of several Vitis species are grown commercially for consumption as fresh grapes and for fermentation into wine. [30] Vitis vinifera is the most important such species. [31] The leaves of several species of grapevine are edible and are used in the production of dolmades and Vietnamese lot leaves. [32]
It was grown from a crossing of the complex interspecific hybrid Landot 4511 and a very cold-hardy selection of Vitis riparia. It was released in 1996. Frontenac gris is a white wine version of Frontenac, introduced in 2003. It started as a single bud mutation of Frontenac, yielding gray (thus named gris) fruit and amber-colored juice. [1]

Vitis rotundifolia (the muscadine), used for jams and wine, is native to the Southeastern United States from Delaware to the Gulf of Mexico.
Marquette is an inter-species hybrid red wine grape variety.It was developed at the University of Minnesota as part of its grape-breeding program (which seeks to develop high quality, cold hardy, and disease-resistant wine and table grape cultivars [1]), and is a cross between two other hybrids, MN 1094 and Ravat 262.
Beta is a winter-hardy variety of North American grape derived from a cross of the Vitis labrusca-based cultivar Concord and a selection of Vitis riparia, the wild riverbank grape, called Carver. [1] It is an extremely cold-hardy grape that is self-fertile.
