Southern Staple for Sweet Bronze Muscadine Wine and Juice

Carlos Muscadine Grape (Vitis rotundifolia 'Carlos') is a vigorous, self-fertile muscadine cultivar celebrated across the southeastern U.S. for its sweet, bronze-colored fruit that’s perfect for juice, jam, and especially winemaking. This cultivar is one of the most widely planted muscadines in the country—and for good reason: it’s productive, hardy, disease-resistant, and loaded with flavor.

The grapes are medium-sized, thick-skinned, and grow in generous clusters, ripening in late summer to early fall. Carlos vines are adapted to heat and humidity, making them ideal for southern growers and an excellent addition to food forests, trellised edible borders, and backyard arbors.

With its reliable yields and consistent quality, Carlos is the gold standard for muscadine wine production, but it also shines as a fresh snack or preserved in sweet spreads. Grow it solo or alongside other muscadine cultivars for cross-pollination and longer harvests.
