Cardinal is a table grape variety first produced in California in 1939.
The grape is a cross of the Flame Seedless (or Flame Tokay) and Ribier table grapes. In the United States, Bulgaria, Croatia, France, Italy, Romania, and Spain the grape is used as a typical table grape for eating and making raisins. In Thailand and Vietnam it is used widely in wine production. It is the main parent of the Blanc du Bois subtropical wine grape.
