    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

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.

  • Copper and Sulfur Sensitivity of Northern Grape Cultivars
    Copper and Sulfur Sensitivity of Northern Grape Cultivars Sturgeon Bay, WI and Madison, WI Patricia McManus, Victoria Kartanos, Matt Stasiak, and Janet Hedtke University of Wisconsin-Madison Background and Rationale: While many synthetic fungicides are failing owing to the emergence of fungicide- resistant pathogen populations, copper- and sulfur-based fungicides remain effective despite decades of use in vineyards. In grape production, sulfur is used primary to control powdery mildew, whereas copper is used primarily to control downy mildew. Some copper- and sulfur-based products are allowed for use in organic production, and many formulations are relatively inexpensive. Thus, copper and sulfur continue to have an important place in modern grape production. Unfortunately, many important grape cultivars are sensitive to injury from copper and/or sulfur, but the sensitivity of the “northern” cultivars is not known. In Year 3 of the project we continued field studies to assess sensitivity of several cultivars to copper and sulfur. Treatments: • The following 10 cultivars in an established vineyard were treated at Peninsular Agricultural Research Station (PARS) in Sturgeon Bay, WI: Brianna, Foch, Frontenac, LaCrescent, LaCrosse, Leon Millot, Marquette, Noiret, NY76, and Vignoles. • In an established vineyard at West Madison Agricultural Research Station (WMARS), all those varieties (except Noiret and Vignoles) plus MN1220 and Petite Pearl, were treated. • The following 8 cultivars in 2-year old vineyards were treated at PARS and WMARS: Brianna, Frontenac, Frontenac Gris, LaCrescent, LaCrosse, Marquette, St. Croix, and Valiant. • Treatments were applied six times at approximately 2-week intervals from June through August at WMARS. At PARS treatments were applied in June and early July, but a severe hailstorm on 14 July stripped leaves from vines, prevent us from continuing studies there in 2014.

    NebGuide Nebraska Extension Research-Based Information That You Can Use G2289 · Index: Crops, Crop Production Issued July 2017 Growing Commercial Wine Grapes in Nebraska Paul E. Read, Extension Horticulturist and Professor of Horticulture Stephen J. Gamet, Research Technologist In recent years, interest in grape production and win- ery development has increased tremendously in Nebraska and the Midwest. This increased interest has led to a need for detailed information on vineyard establishment and commercial grape production. A successful winery must have a ready source of consistently high- quality fruit that is available every year. Fortunately for Nebraska growers, many locations through- out the state provide the essential resources of quality soil, water, and abundant sunshine. The experience of growers and University of Nebraska– Lincoln research have demon- strated that many sites are suitable for growing grapes of excellent quality that can be finished into wines of excep- tional quality.

  • Growing Grapes for Wine and Table in the Puget Sound Region Page 1 of 10 EB0775 Growing
    Growing Grapes for Wine and Table in the Puget Sound Region Page 1 of 10 EB0775 Growing Grapes for Wine and Table in the Puget Sound Region Most grapes are not well adapted to the generally cool climate of the Puget Sound region. Grape cultivars (varieties), such as Island Belle (Campbell Early), have been grown commercially, but the wines they produced are acidic, thin, and considered of low quality. The maritime climate favors development of mildew and other bunch rot problems, particularly on varieties containing European (vinifera) parentage. In small plantings, birds frequently destroy the crop before it reaches maturity. Thus, grapes should be considered only by those willing to cope with the vagaries of weather and perhaps manipulate the environment to obtain satisfactory results. This publication will discuss some of the unique features of growing grapes in the Puget Sound region of western Washington. General information on the culture of grapes including propagation, trellis construction, training and pruning, soil management, and pest control are contained in other publications listed at the end of this publication. These can be obtained from your county Extension office. Since temperature is the main limiting factor for grape production in coastal areas of the Northwest, data from ... Growing Grapes for Wine and Table in the Puget Sound Region Page 2 of 10 selected stations follow. Some important wine-producing areas of Europe have less than 2000 accumulated heat units (AHU) per season, i.e., Geisenheim, Germany 1700 AHU. In marginal areas such as this, only certain early maturing varieties can be grown successfully. Even the earliest varieties will be difficult to ripen with less than 1500 heat units.

  • Forest Red Is Our Semi-Sweet Red Or Red Blend of French-American Hybrid Grapes
    BRONZE MEDAL–2007 Indy International FFoorreesstt RReedd SILVER MEDAL–2002 Indy International OVERVIEW Forest Red is our semi-sweet red or red blend of French-American hybrid grapes. Forest Red is enjoyed by both dry and sweet wine drinkers as it has a dry flavor profile but a decided sweet finish. HISTORY Winzerwald’s Forest Red is the companion to our first semi-sweet Vidal Blanc known as Forest White. Our Nutcracker Red and White are our semi-dry companion wines in the French-American grape series, and our Little Rhineland Red, White and Blush are our companion wines in the sweet American grape series. Forest Red was first introduced the year of our grand opening in 2002 and vinted from the Loesch Vineyard Marechal Foch grapes. This vineyard is in Tobinsport on Dan the owner’s family farm. Loesch is the name of Dan’s grandmother on his mother’s side. The cuttings for the vineyard were taken from grapes at the Wollersheim Winery in Wisconsin where Dan used to work. GRAPES AND SOURCES Our Forest Red is typically a single vintage or a blend of Marechal Foch, Leon Millot, Chambourcin and/or Dechaunac. The grapes are fermented in stainless steel to maintain a fresh fruit character to the wine similar to a Chianti for a great pasta, pizza and burger companion. Also try it with cinnamon raisin style desserts and bars. WINE DESCRIPTION & DATA Color: Deep dark brick red Sugar: Semi-sweet wine with generally 4% residual sugar Style: A medium bodied easy drinking wine to enjoy alone or with foods Aroma/Bouquet: Elderberry, blackberry, leather, chocolate notes Taste: Dry red flavors with bright bramble berry fruit and a sweet finish Alcohol: 11-12% Ferment/Aging: 100% Stainless steel fermentation, no oak.
