‘Tankeumchu’ is new table grape cultivar resulting from an interspecific ( Vitissp. x Vitis vinifera) cross. It is diploid, mid-ripening and black-fruited with large berries. It has a mean date of bud burst, at Suwon, Korea of 24 April, full bloom occurs on 1 June, and fruit matures on 10 September. It has an excellent taste with abundant juice and soft firmness. The mean weight of berries is 7.0 g, and mean total soluble solids concentration is 18.0 °Brix. ‘Tankeumchu’ is more suitable to a mild climate with its moderate resistance to cold hardiness. It is a mid-season table grape with high quality and compares favorably with the cultivar ‘Tano Red’ in taste, harvest date and cluster setting. The harvest time is a major advantage in the Korean market and consequently it is recommended as an alternative to ‘Tano Red’.
