best white/green and purple grape varieties for SW Ohio?

I'm planting 3 grape plants this spring. I've already planted a red variety, and was wondering if anyone could suggest a white/green variety, as well as a purple or dark blue variety. Basically, I'm wanting to do the red, white and blue thing.

I'm interested in:

1) disease resistance 2) productivity 3) excellent flavor for fresh eating 4) early and mid season harvest (already have late covered with the selection of Catawba)

My grandparents had a white grape that was very sweet with a pungent, spicy flavor. I loved that, but they could never remember what it was. Of course, it never produced a whole lot, so I suppose even if I knew what it was, I shouldn't really consider it. :-(

The sweet/spicy grape may have bee gewürztraminer, a German wine grape. If so, try the American hybrid Traminette. You'll probably get better answers for grapes at

Gewürztraminer ("spicy" grape from Tramin, Italy/AustroHungairian Empire) is a pinkish grape. Traminette also looks like a good choice for a wine grape.

Take a look at specifically Cultivars
