Interpretive Summary: 'Vintage' is a new primocane-fruiting/fall-fruiting red raspberry from the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture–Agricultural Research Service (USDA–ARS) breeding program in Corvallis, OR released in cooperation with the Oregon State Agricultural Experiment Station and the Washington State University Agricultural Research Center. 'Vintage' is a high-yielding cultivar that produces large, firm fruit that are bright-red-colored and have outstanding flavor. The cultivar should be widely adapted to wherever primocane-fruiting raspberries are grown and provide growers with an alternative to 'Autumn Bliss' or 'Heritage' with much better fruit quality, particularly flavor and color.
