Agawam (or Rogers 15) is a hybrid grape variety. It is a hybrid of "Vitis labrusca" x "Vitis vinifera". It is one of the so-called Rogers' Hybrids created by E.S. Rogers in the early to mid-1800s, and is unique among the named cultivars of that group in that it is self-fertile.

It can be used to make a rosé wine having a "foxy" flavor.
