Clusters are typically small, well-filled, and compact, resembling 'Concord' clusters. Yields are generally low to moderate for an eastern U.S. table grape cultivar, around 4 to 5 tons per acre in research trials.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRipening Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e 'Sunbelt' is a \u003cstrong\u003elate-season\u003c\/strong\u003e ripening grape, similar to 'Concord', typically around mid to late August in Arkansas (approximately August 17th at Clarksville, Arkansas).
