    Matching Grape Varieties to Sites Are hybrid varieties right for Oklahoma? Bruce Bordelon Purdue University Wine Grape Team 2014 Oklahoma Grape Growers Workshop 2006 survey of grape varieties in Oklahoma: Vinifera 80%. Hybrids 15% American 7% Muscadines 1% Profiles and Challenges…continued… • V. vinifera cultivars are the most widely grown in Oklahoma…; however, observation and research has shown most European cultivars to be highly susceptible to cold damage. • More research needs to be conducted to elicit where European cultivars will do best in Oklahoma. • French-American hybrids are good alternatives due to their better cold tolerance, but have not been embraced by Oklahoma grape growers... Reasons for this bias likely include hybrid cultivars being perceived as lower quality than European cultivars, lack of knowledge of available hybrid cultivars, personal preference, and misinformation. Profiles and Challenges…continued… • The unpredictable continental climate of Oklahoma is one of the foremost obstacles for potential grape growers. • It is essential that appropriate site selection be done prior to planting. • Many locations in Oklahoma are unsuitable for most grapes, including hybrids and American grapes. • Growing grapes in Oklahoma is a risky endeavor and minimization of potential loss by consideration of cultivar and environmental interactions is paramount to ensure long-term success. • There are areas where some European cultivars may succeed. • Many hybrid and American grapes are better suited for most areas of Oklahoma than

  • Vérapson to HARVEST
    VERAISOŃ TO HARVEST Statewide Vineyard Crop Development Update #5 October 6, 2017 Edited by Tim Martinson and Chris Gerling Around New York... Statewide (Tim Martinson) Harvest is in high gear throughout New York, with 27 of our original sample blocks now harvested (Fruit composition table pp. 6-10). This includes many traditional natives and hybrids (Baco noir, Seyval blanc, Vignoles, and Niagara), almost all of the Cold-hardy Minnesota hybrids (Marquette, Frontenac, and La Crescent), and early vinifera (Pinot noir and Chardonnay). Overall, the pace of ripening (by the numbers) slowed down from last week. Across all varieties, soluble solids gained an average 1 °Brix, and TAs dropped by 1.2 g/l. (Last week +1.3 °Brix; -1.65 g/l TA). Biggest gainers in our Burdett, NY. Young Riesling vines with first partial crop at Paul Hobbs samples included Concord, Catawba, and La Crescent vineyards, on the southeast end of Seneca Lake, near Burdett. (>2 °Brix), with mid/late season varieties gaining about Photo by Tim Martinson +0.5°Brix. Most TAs changed by <-1 g/l, but acids dropped dramatically in Catawba and Vidal blanc (both>-3g/l). Compared to last year, most varieties are still 1 to 3 °Brix The number of calls concerning the ability of vines to ripen lower than 2016, and TAs range from 1-5 g/l above last a crop are increasing.

  • High Quality Hybrid Wines My Experience with Cold Hardy Hybrids
    High Quality Hybrid Wines Viticulture and Wine Making Mark L. Chien Statewide Viticulture Extension Educator Penn State Cooperative Extension [email protected] My Experience with Cold Hardy Hybrids • Vermont • NE Pennsylvania • Minnesota Style and Price • Who are your customers? – Rural palate – Wine snobs in the city – The Missouri hybrid example • Wine goals – What are goals of the industry? • PA example: regional recognition and respect – Seeking vinifera look‐alikes – As an industry, have you decided on a particular style and type of wine when the consumer thinks “Nebraska”? Viticulture and Wine Making Goals • #1. You must believe this! Hybrid grapes can make really good wine • But… can you push vinifera or hybrids into vinifera‐like wines (do you even want to?) • Optimize fruit maturity every vintage • Maximum cold hardiness in all varieties • Produce fruit and vines that are health and free of defects • The same viticulture principles and practices support all of these objectives! • Aromatic white wines will be the best. Red wines will always be a struggle for real quality • This is truly farming on the edge. You have to be a better grower than the guy in California or Australia Hybrid Varieties: Cornell • Whites – Valvin Muscat: characteristic muscat flavors but can have bitterness – Traminette: no substitute for Gewurz but it makes a nice, spicy wine – Cayuga White: great base and blending wine for many basic whites – Chardonel: no substitute for Chardonnay but can make nice wines – Vignoles: late harvest botrytised wine can be delicious – NY 76 and 81: in the field and showing great promise! • Reds – Noiret: moderate to excessive vigor but wines can be balanced and attractive – Corot Noir: deep red color with berry and cherry fruit aromas – GR‐7: big yields, grapey flavors, high acid Hybrid Varieties: Univ of MN and Swenson • Whites – incredible aromatic white wine varieties – La Crescent: wow!
