A photo of large grapes will not leave anyone indifferent. But do not rush to buy the variety you like right away. Each has its own disadvantages and advantages. When choosing, you should be guided by simple rules:
- consider the climate and growing conditions. Cold-tolerant varieties are unlikely to take root well in hot regions, as well as thermophilic ones in northern ones. If it rains frequently, choose varieties that are not prone to cracking;
- choose proven varieties. No need to chase new products. It is better to grow a few bushes of proven varieties, and then try something new. This is especially true for novice winegrowers;
- think about where the grapes will grow. Much depends on the correct location.
