Looking for Similar Grape in the US

[Pachicito]

Hi All,

Is anyone familiar with the Quebranta grape that grows in Peru? I am looking for a similar grape here in the US. Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks!

I think some characteristics would help identify a similar grape. start with is it red or white, high sugar, tannin, taste and aroma characteristics etc.

Red and white in the same cluster it seems. Breed in Peru from Spanish parents. Valued for use in the local brandy. Subtle ripe tropical fruit aromas.

In addition to salcoco's questions, where in the US would you like to grow it, and what is the intended use?
