With its vibrant purple fruit and vigorous climbing habit, 'Vanessa' makes an appealing addition to the edible landscape. The vines are moderately vigorous, growing up to 10–15 fee t in length. Training up an arbor or trellis is recommended. Requires full sun for optimal fruit sweetness and production. Vanessa is a mid-season grape that typically ripens in late August. The fruit is medium-sized, oval-shaped, and a striking bright red when fully ripe. 'Vanessa' is both thin skinned and completely seedless, making it the perfect snacking grape. Offers a mildly sweet, fruity flavor with a hint of tanginess. Prune annually during late winter or early spring, removing old wood to encourage strong new growth and maintain the vine's shape.
