CATALOGUE OP GRAPE VINES.

Fronlignac, and other Muscat grapes. 



The grapes of this class are celebrated for their high musk flavour, and are 

 among the most estimable for the table, and a few are used in France for 

 sweet wines. In consequence of these varieties being more highly valued in 

 France, and even much more rare there than most other kinds, more decep- 

 tions and inaccuracies have existed with regard to them than any other class ; 

 and it is with great satisfaction I can state that these are of undoubted 



character.

German and Swiss grapes. 



These are principally celebrated as wine grapes ; and I have information from 

 the highest sources, that those numbered 119, 133, 134, 137, 138, 139, 144, and 

 145, are considered among the most valuable for vineyards, on account of 

 their abundant and regular crops, and their resisting the severest winters un- 

 injured. In addition to these here enumerated, a number of varieties of 

 grapes are cultivated in Germany which are necessarily arranged under other 

 heads in this catalogue, including the principal part of the Burgundy grapes ; 

 and I am assured by a gentleman who has a very extensive vineyard on the 

 Rhine, that the grapes numbered 1, 7, 93, 94, 95, 98, 100, 104, and 105, sup- 

 port there all the rigours of the climate, and produce immense and regular crops.
