I was also confused by the Sunset page that shows "Champagne" as a red cherry. When I was offered Champagne, I thought I remembered it as being yellow. The page does make it seem that the pic is of what they are calling Champagne cherry.

But my guess is that they just happened to name it the same as an already existing named variety without knowing about the pale yellow variety. Just trying to create a brand.

I happened to go thru their site looking at what they were listing. The fact it Hubby found some very nice Sunset brand yellow "on the vine" cluster tomatoes at a local store about a month ago. I don't know what variety they may be as they weren't quite like any other variety i've grown so far. So we saved seeds.

BTW, I do have Coyote to grow this year, but I never did get the Champagne as the person that offered it then couldn't find their seeds. If anyone has some seeds I'll trade for whatever, so I can compare them.
