A recent Austrian cross. Makes an excellent fruity, Pinot type wine. Very vigorous and highly productive, with very dark grapes. Heavy production and tight clusters require shoot thinning and cluster thinning. Continues to gain sugar even in cool, wet falls. 1600-1900 GDD. Own Root.
Wine Grape Notes
- Provide support
- Annual pruning required for full crops
- Cane prune and summer shoot thin for best production
- Space 4-8′ at planting
- Hardy to Zone 5 when established
