How to use CategoryList property on Commerce Products/Variants

Hi, I'm trying to add a property of type CategoryList to the model of a product on an epi commerce site, but receive the following exception stating that CategoryList cannot be mapped to a MetaDataType.

Does this mean Episerver CMS Categories are simply not compatible with Commerce products? How would I go about tagging Epi Commerce Products with Episerver CMS Categories?

I've added the property like so:
[Display(
Name = "Search Context",
Description = "Select the contexts you want your content to connect to",
GroupName = SystemTabNames.Content,
Order = 1)]
public virtual CategoryList SearchContext { get; set; }

Using Episerver 11.13.2.0
Episerver.Commerce 13.12.0:
