If you’re in St Francisville just cruise Powell Station Road, you can pick em right out the bed of your truck today. I went through there yesterday and seen plenty dark, ripe ones.

We have a little place on a lake in North Louisiana, my dad grew them on the fence and some wires in the yard for years.
All the neighbors would show up when they were ripe, seems like it was around October but I may be wrong.
The old man made wine and some fantastic jelly from them.
I've eaten more than you could ever imagine over the years.
We had the big dark purple ones and some that were kind of a tan/brown color when ripe.

Grandad used to tell me about climbing trees after the muscadines so his MIL could make wine (he was a functional wino). Grandma never made wine but did make jelly.
The area around the old family land was loaded with all kinds of vines. There was a muscadine vine in the corner of the backyard that was about 7” diameter and ran to the top of a huge oak tree. Since the tree had no lower branches the birds got all the grapes. What they knocked down the deer got.
I used to watch the deer and squirrels working the vines along the fence rows when I lived there. The grapes were always plentiful to the extent one household would not make a dent in them.
