OOOOOOOOH! I want one! I wonder why they didn't call it Sogo Raspberry or Sogo Cherry instead of grape? Does it have a scent???? Congratulations!!!

Great form on this one Jackie and solid coloration ..
It's very happy being mounted

Elliot - perhaps they were thinking of red grapes

P. Sogo Grape = P. Super Stupid X P. Princess Kaiulani.

Jackie - if you are specifically looking for the coloration in the Oak Hills photo - you might want to look for a Phalaenopsis pulchra - IOSPE PHOTOS and Phalaenopsis pulchra
or a primary hybrid of this species at the bottom of the page of the second link ..

Yours is gorgeous

The color difference we're all seeing could be due to photography or our monitor settings...

or it could just be another beautiful color Phal

It is such a beauty! Have you tried seeing if there is any color vatiation in different lighting? I have a phal that is similar to yours that I bought from Balden's Orchids.....it certain lighting it looks more purple and other times of the day it is more red like yours! Maybe you just need to take more pictures of it

Mine, which I only bought a few weeks ago, is quite close in color to yours, though possibly even slightly darker and more purple. I really like it! The color is wonderful to my eye, and the shape of the flower is supurb. The sepals forms a very tight triangle and the petals have a nice roundness without being in-your-face round. Here's mine:
