Other Red
Red wine grape · reported 2000–2021
Other Red is not a single grape but CDFA's catch-all category for red wine grapes too minor, unidentified, or ungrouped to report individually. In the atlas's own data it appears across 344 district-years and 22 crop years, from 2000 through 2021, with no acreage figure and no single varietal identity behind it, a reminder that the state's crush numbers include a real volume of red fruit that never gets sorted into a named variety at all in California's official reporting.
What kind of grape this is
Other Red is a reporting category rather than a grape — CDFA sums the varieties too small to name individually under it. There is no botanical identity to publish for a heading, and inventing one would turn a sum into a cultivar.
What is published
Counts describe what this atlas holds for Other Red, not what California grows. A zero is a published answer: it means the source names the grape and reports nothing under it, or does not name it at all.
