Expert Response
This is an American bunch variety. I suspect that it may be Fredonia since it is dark purple to almost black and ripening at the time you indicated. The only other option I know of is Sunbelt, which was developed by the University of Arkansas as a replacement for Concord in hotter areas where uneven ripening in the cluster is an issue with Concord.
