Pictures of Pione

It is said that its origin is in the Caucasus region between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea. The origin of grapes in Japan is said to have been planted in a different kind from the wild at the end of the Heian period. In Kagawa, it was introduced in 30, and the cultivation area began to increase around 30. It produces a variety of grape varieties, including small-grain Delaware, large-grain Pione, and high-grade Muscat of Alexandria. Because it has little rain and long sunshine hours, it produces delicious fruits with high sugar content. Pione is a cross between Kyoho and Muscat, and is one of the most produced varieties in Kagawa. Elegant sweetness is popular for large black-purple fruits. Seedless New Pione is popular for gifts and the like. Those with an average sugar content of 17.0 degrees or higher in the excellent product rank are sold as “Sanuki Sansan Fruit”.

A large purple-black grape with a good balance of refreshing acidity and sweetness. There is nourishment in the delicious part between the skin and the pulp, so it is recommended to eat with the skin on. Rich juice spreads throughout the mouth. Blessed with sunshine hours and a mild climate, Kagawa Prefecture grows high-quality grapes. Producers continue to raise their arms, such as selecting branches, making seedless grapes, and bagging. For this reason, the height of the tree has been adjusted to be low so that the grape fruits are in the line of sight. A house cultivator, a warmer, is what you need to make a good grape. While suffering from soaring fuels and climate change, they can squeeze their wisdom and continue working with care. The grapes that have started to grow grow over two months and reach their harvest. Vegetable producers who are familiar with delicious times and confidently ship Pione will be on the table from around the middle of June every year. In recent years, seedless "New Pione" is also popular. The bargain is around August when shipments increase in season.
