Harvested varieties of industrial grapes in the middle lane. Grapes in central Russia: the best varieties and tips for growing. Northern, frost-resistant wine grape varieties - description, photos, care tips

Grapes love warmth. It was difficult to grow a berry culture in the middle lane a century ago. Only with the beginning of the development of selection, scientists managed to instill in plants resistance to harsh climatic conditions. At the moment, there are many elite varieties. Now you can grow grapes, no worse than on the southern slopes of the country.

The climate in this area is unstable. For the cultivation of berry crops are not the most favorable conditions. In order for a heat-loving plant to fully develop and yield, it must have the following characteristics:

• short growing season. From the moment of bud blooming to the full ripening of berries, 95-120 days should pass. The heat in the spring in the middle lane comes in different ways. One year the air temperature rises to + 18-20 ° С. already in April, and maybe only in mid-May. Therefore, over the summer, the plant needs to have time to form a strong green mass and give a crop;
• high resistance to frost. Grapes must withstand a temperature drop of at least -20 ° C .;
• have resistance to fungal diseases. In the central regions of Russia, for the most part, summer is not hot and rainy, which provokes the development of fungal diseases. Therefore, high immunity for plants is a prerequisite for survival.

Useful advice!

Watering of grapes stops as soon as the ripening process begins. Irrigation during the period of ripening negatively affects the taste of the fruit, provokes cracking.

Today, there are more than 700 officially registered grape varieties, which include table and wine varieties. With all the diversity, breeders strongly recommend growing only those varieties that are domestic. Only in this case, the yield will be predictable, and the culture itself will be more resilient. Even if different varieties are crossed, each variety is better taken root in its original place.

Studying and choosing the best grape varieties, it is worth paying attention to the difference between wine and table, early and late ripening, size and taste. Below we will describe the best grape varieties of 2017, give their description and photo.

Since grapes are a dessert, the focus is on the taste and quantity of sugar. Table varieties are initially larger in size, large brushes, fleshy berries, sugar concentration reaches 17%. Such berries are very tasty, although sometimes they come across with sourness, but they should all be sweet.

Technical grade from which wine is made

Wine varieties are considered technical and are not intended for fresh consumption, but for the preparation of wine. Here, importance is attached not to the size of brushes and berries, but to a concentration of sugar, which should be at least 20%, an abundance of coloring matter and estrogens, which add tartness to wine and dictate its taste.

If you take table grapes for making wine, the only thing that he will give the drink is sweetness, but there will be no astringency and no color, even when it comes to white. In addition, the yield of wine varieties is always lower with an equal planting area. For home use, summer residents in most cases use table varieties, with which you can have a bite and make wine from leftovers. On an industrial scale, the table will never go to wine.

Of course, the best grapes for wine grow in the southern regions, since high solar activity accelerates metabolism, berries quickly gain taste and aroma. Wine varieties can also be grown in the northern regions, but then it is recommended to double-cut the vines so that no more than 2 brushes remain on one. If this is not done, the berries will be small and absolutely tasteless, or rather acidic, which is categorically not suitable for wine.

  The best grape varieties for central Russia

There are more than a hundred different varieties that can be grown in the middle lane, but from them we will single out only 5 of the main ones that are consistently popular and have a rich taste.

  Arcadia

The undisputed leader among table varieties, suitable for both home and industrial cultivation. Large brushes weighing up to 2.5 kg. The taste is bright, sweet, very juicy. It belongs to the category of the best varieties due to universal survival, high productivity and unpretentiousness in care.

  Delight

It is also a variety of early ripening, which is distinguished by tremendous endurance to pests and diseases. It takes root perfectly, especially if it is well insulated in the first year of planting. Fruiting occurs on the 5th year, the yield is high, the brushes are relatively large, the weight of each reaches 500-700 gr., The berries are juicy, fleshy, taste is sweet. The sugar concentration is 15%.

  White raisins

A sample of the best wine grape varieties, which also perfectly "settled down" on the table. Not only wine is made from raisins, but also raisins. The berries are sweet, juicy, fleshy, seedless, the peel is soft and transparent. High sugar concentration - 17% and excellent keeping quality. Even fresh, such a product is stored for about a month.

White raisins

  Lady fingers

Perhaps the most famous variety, famous not so much for taste, but for appearance. But the taste of berries is also on top - sweet with a slight hint of sourness, fleshy, very juicy. Large brushes - up to 1 kg, refers to an early ripe variety, but even in the south the crop can be harvested only in the middle of summer.

Lady fingers

  The best harvested grape varieties

This indicator, we repeat, applies not only to canteens, but also to wine varieties, since the volume of a batch directly depends on this.

  Pleven

It ripens early, has a very large amount of yield, and this does not depend on the fertility of the soil. Medium brushes, berries almost all of the same size (caliber). The first brushes can be removed already at the end of June, and it is practically not damaged by insects, even aphids, but requires careful trimming. The more accurately and accurately it is carried out, the better and more the harvest will be next year.

In the south, pruning is done once, in the northern regions it is recommended to do it twice, so that no more than 2 brushes remain on one vine, then the taste will be bright and sweet.

  Elegant

A variety of early ripening, but is able to withstand even prolonged frosts. Medium brushes, elongated berries, the weight of one brush reaches 800 grams. To increase yield and increase sugar concentration, it is recommended to carry out radical pruning at the end of fruiting. After cutting the brushes, the berries retain their shape and structure for a long time, due to which such a variety is most often grown for sale.

  Laura

Outwardly resembles Arkady, but more sweet, although less “prolific" culture. The berries are fleshy, the skin is of medium density and slightly crackles when consumed. The variety itself is quite whimsical, it requires high-quality warming before frost. Experts advise wrapping the vine in spandond or any other covering material, but do not use a film for this. Under it, the bark begins to whine and is eventually affected by pests.

  Strashinsky

One of the few varieties that can grow and give a good harvest, even in conditions of absolute drought. Unpretentious in care, but requires radical pruning. The brushes are relatively large, the berries are sweet, dark saturated color.

Strashinsky

  The best grape varieties for winemaking

Recall that these are technical varieties that yield a smaller yield, berries are also smaller, but the sugar concentration is an order of magnitude higher. Sugar, color, saturation - the main indicators by which winemakers choose raw materials.

Depending on the color of the berries, white, pink, red and black technical varieties are distinguished, from which drinks are prepared accordingly.

  Aligote

Contrary to the assertion that grapes grow best in their original place, this French variety has been growing in Russia for more than 300 years and feels great. The main raw materials for the preparation of white dry table wines, vintage champagne and blend.

Given that age takes away the taste of the finished drink, Aligote is consumed only by young people, up to 5 years old.

  Chardonnay

It is used as the main raw material for the preparation of dry wines and champagne. According to winemakers, this variety is so good that it is impossible to make a bad drink out of it or somehow spoil it. Equally often homemade wines are made from Chardonnay.

In cultivation, it is quite complex, requires fertile soil, prone to numerous diseases, but if you take care of it properly, carry out radical pruning, warm it for the winter, apply fertilizers, in particular wood ash, then the harvest will be enormous.

  Nutmeg white

Muscat gives originality to the taste, thanks to which this variety got its name. Wine from such berries is strong, tart and very sweet. It is used as the main raw material for the preparation of dessert and sparkling wines.

It is not difficult to grow, but it is very “afraid” of even short-term frosts. Immediately after the entire crop has been completely harvested, the bushes are first covered with a spondond, and wrapped up before the first frosts.

Nutmeg white

  Cabernet Sauvignon

A very famous French variety cultivated in Crimea. Table and dessert wines are made from it. The taste is astringent, moderately saturated, age adds fullness to the bouquet. It is recommended to withstand in oak barrels, which conveys velvety and delicate finish.

Young Cabernet is practically not consumed, since the nightshade taste makes the drink coarse enough and does not allow the whole bouquet to open. The age of 8 years is considered optimal for consumption, ideal - from 10 and older.

Despite the fact that it is grown commercially in the Crimea, survival and stability allows it to be planted even in Siberia and the Urals. Productivity will certainly be lower, but the richness of taste can be fully felt. Moreover, Cabernet is considered one of the best grape varieties for the Moscow region, although it is not very suitable as a table.

Cabernet Sauvignon

  Pinot noir

The most unpredictable variety, difficult to grow, but with a very rich taste. Homeland - Burgundy, was cultivated in the Crimea until 1985, when the so-called "no alcohol law". At this time, almost all Crimean vineyards were cut down. To date, no more than 40% has been restored, but now Pinot Noir is grown in sufficient quantities for the production of wine. Dessert wines, champagne, and blend are prepared from it. It is used by both young and mature. Moreover, an exposure of 10 years is recommended so that you can feel the whole bouquet.

Pinot noir

In Russia, you can grow different grapes (2017 the best varieties in YouTube), the main thing is to ensure quality care, insulation and pruning. This culture is quite whimsical and does not tolerate frosts, therefore, warming also needs to be paid attention. More details about the care can be found in the video recommendations.

Table varieties

. The form of early ripening. Last summer, it matured on August 20. The clusters did not differ in large size, but their beauty is very attractive, the ripening of the vine is very good. For southerners, this form may not be so attractive. But as the owner of the northern vineyard, I see in it yet some advantages.

I am convinced that the northerners should try not only the early, but also the early-middle varieties - given the long daylight hours in the north, some may prove to be excellent. The optimum ripening time for “techies”, unlike table varieties, is by no means super early! A good wine variety for your area (especially red) should ripen as soon as possible in your region, harmonizing your taste and absorbing the sun and the warmth of the earth into the berries. This is the opinion of many experienced wine-growers. For our “Moscow-Tver” places, this is the optimal and at the same time the maximum possible late ripening time (before the first wave of autumn frosts) around September 18-22, and a number of varieties from my list of recommendations fall into this scheme.

The berry is sweet, juicy, after ripening for a long time keeps on the shoots and continues to gain sugar.. He doesn’t need any recommendations, the well-known wine-grower Yevgeny Polyanin said very well about her: “If they told me that I can only keep one variety, I would choose Over time, this fruit has spread throughout the world, and today plantations, which are cultivated with various grape varieties, can be found even in Australia and South America. The shoots of this plant are called the vine, and its fruits grow in clusters, which consist of 5 dozen or even several hundred berries, depending on the variety. As for berries, they have different sizes and oval or spherical shape. If we talk about color, then it can vary from bright yellow and greenish to dark blue, purple, black and pink. Vine bushes bear fruit long enough, on average, up to 80-100 years. 30% of the berry content is glucose. In addition, the fruits contain organic acids, minerals, as well as vitamins C, B1, B2 and provitamin A.

The supreme grape variety. Very productive, has increased frost resistance (up to 29 ° C below zero). Not susceptible to disease, including gray rot.Early

Universal Grade

In a technical vineyard, it’s important to tune in to the quality of the grapes, not the quantity. The optimum yield for red varieties with frequent (up to 1 m) planting is 2.5-3 kg per vine, for white varieties - up to 5 kg. Therefore, crop normalization is simply necessary for technical varieties. The first of them is held in the third decade of June at the "pea" stage. Depending on the variety, remove 30-50% of the brushes. We are not greedy.Learn more information

The second normalization is carried out at the end of July. As a result, in European varieties and in Amur hybrids of the Far Eastern breeding line, 1-2 brushes are left on the fruitful shoot (depending on the age of the bush), and on every third shoot we remove all brushes. Without normalization, the sugar content of the berries will be insufficient.About grapes

Note to the winegrower: ​300​
Frost resistance (without shelter) To perceive the taste of grapes, the sugar and acid indices themselves are not so important as their ratio. The sugar content in grape juice is measured in percent, the concentration of acid in grams per liter, and if their ratio is about 2: 1, then the taste of grapes is harmonious. If the ratio is 3: 1 or lower, the taste will be uniformly sweet. Well, what sour taste is - everyone understands.

For their assessment, a special 10-point scale was developed. Moreover, unlike technical varieties, for dining rooms, not only taste is important, but also appearance, since they are often the decoration of banquet tables. Also, the ripening factor is important for assessing the quality of such grapes. In particular, early (very early and just early), early-middle, middle, medium-late and late varieties are distinguished. In quantitative terms, this parameter is expressed as the number of days that must elapse from the moment the buds appear until the berries fully ripen.

This will give you the opportunity to approach the choice consciously and avoid many mistakes and disappointments in the future.

Among the specialists involved in the cultivation of this plant, to this day the Pearl of Szabo variety is considered the standard of early ripening. This Hungarian variety is more than 100 years old, and its fruits can be tasted already on the eightieth day after the buds have opened. Its distinctive features also include a pleasant musky taste and high fruitfulness. The only drawback is the small size of the berries, which makes Sabo Pearl uncompetitive compared to other varieties that ripen early enough. However, many gardeners are happy to plant it in their plots in order to be able to enjoy delicious berries in mid-summer.

Berries and bunches are very beautiful. Frost resistance is high, as well as resistance to major diseases. With a very high load on the crop (I did not normalize the number of ovaries this year), the variety ripened on August 25-30.

In addition to Sabo Pearls, the definition of "early ripe grape varieties" includes Ekaro-35, ripening on the 88th day, Halahard - on the 89th day and Serafimovsky - on the 89th day. At the same time, it is known that gardeners continue to work on developing more mature grapes. In addition, the issue of obtaining frost-resistant options is relevant. Among the domestic varieties, one can also note the superearly table variety Donskoy agate, which ripens well even in cloudy weather and has a large, conical, somewhat loose bunch, consisting of large berries of almost black color, rounded in shape. Arkady belongs to the precocious. This is a table variety with medium-tall shrubs, having a high yield. Its clusters are very large and dense, and the berries are white.

Winter was fierce for our region - the grapes froze very much. What can we say about Central Russia and the more northern and eastern regions where frosts at 25 degrees will not surprise anyone (though we have exceeded for -30). The person from whom I buy grapes in clusters and seedlings, spent 7 years on creating an amazingly many varietal vineyards (by the way there are almost all of the listed varieties), and this year, according to his confessions, no more than a quarter have remained - the vine has disappeared.

In Russia and Ukraine, in order to harvest at least September in September, they were forced to grow grapes of species belonging to the category of early ripe. However, today, in connection with the climatic changes observed on the planet, medium grape varieties have become popular that ripen within 130-145 days from the beginning of bud blooming at a sum of active temperatures of 2600-2800 ° C. In addition, medium-late varieties are known, which include for example, the French table grapes Alfons Lavalle and the quite popular American variety Isabella, whose berries are picked in clusters weighing 140 g of moderate density and almost cylindrical in shape.

This wonderful form for many decades has been an irreplaceable leader in the ratings of grape varieties in terms of a combination of positive characteristics. Yes, there are varieties tastier, there are more fruitful, there are more frost-resistant and less painful, but if you add all the characteristics together and consider just the totality of all the negative and positive features of a particular variety, it turns out that there is no alternative to Arcadia for many years. It is for this reason that this variety can undoubtedly be called the most popular grape variety in the post-Soviet space. A.

More than a hundred varieties have been tested, now about 70 varieties of “techies” and “generalists” are tested, not counting the canteens. All of them are of different origin (Russia, Ukraine, Eastern and Western Europe, the USA), but they grow in our latitudes, mature and are suitable for high-quality juices and wines.

First-called

. This year I had fruiting for the first time, in the third year after planting - and just three clusters, which struck me both in size and in terms of ripening. Individual berries reached 38-40 mm in length. And I recorded ripening in my area on August 15-20. The vine ripened to "good." I look forward to the next fruiting.

Experts believe that the best grape varieties (white) are grown in France. In particular, the already mentioned Chardonnay variety is recognized as their queen. Chardonnay white wines are also produced today in California, Australia, Italy, Argentina, Germany, South Africa, Austria, Chile and New Zealand. In order to get the original oak flavor, they are kept in special large oak barrels. In this case, an expensive elite drink is obtained. As for mass production, they use simple oak barrels or add oak chips and even a special essence. Obviously, in such cases there can be no question of getting a really high-quality wine that will appeal to true connoisseurs. "Read more ..."Appointment

We grow our grapes with love and have already learned a lot about it. But along the "winemaking road" we are walking recently. Last year, test blends were made from a number of varieties that have come to sustainable fruiting: Rondo-Bruskam (dry red) and Golden Rossoshansky Muscat in a blend with Kristalli Platovsky (dry white).

Nadezhda Aksayskaya

A truly phenomenal combination of sustainability, yield and taste. The clusters are conical, very beautiful, oval-shaped berries. Ripening in the second half of August. The vine ripens perfectly.

The history of the white Muscat grape variety dates back to the time when the pharaohs ruled Egypt. Some researchers even associate his creation with the name of Cleopatra, which is completely unreasonable, since it is proved that he existed several centuries before the era of the reign of this queen. Today, Muscat is cultivated around the world, including South Africa and Australia. There are many different types of grapes, as well as wines made from them. In particular, they can be both light and dry, with a low level of alcohol, and sparkling, very sweet and strong.

Svenson selection grape variety (USA). Mid-sized, very early (end of August). The berries are bright, pink, as if glowing in the sun. The clusters are small. The taste is harmonious, with an exquisite touch. Perhaps the best seedless variety for northern viticulture. For food, but worth a try and for the production of wine in a blend with other sidlises.

It is easier to grow white “techies” in the north than red ones, bringing their sugar content to 17-19% needed for white wine in our latitudes is quite realistic. But among winegrowers there are many admirers of dry red wine, more wholesome than white - with a high content of bioflavonoids. For such wines, grape condition begins with a sugar content of 20% or higher.

Ripening early, the taste is excellent, the wood matures very well (guarantee of good winter hardiness). This variety will remain in my vineyard for a long time.

Like last year, the summer was hot. In the second half of summer in the suburbs, where my vineyard is located, rains became frequent. For grapes, rains during the ripening period are a problem; in many varieties the berries crack and rot.

Varieties, the testing of which is not completed, are signal clusters, but there is still no steady fruiting.

Of the European varieties, promising, in my opinion, are Bianca, Solaris, Seival Blanc, Siegerreb (white) and Leon Millau, Cabernet Cortis, Pinomene, Regent, Pinot noir fruitful, Marechal Foch (red). Of the Amur varieties of the selection Potapenko - Amethyst and Marinovsky as well as the Far Eastern Amur hybrids of Galver and Novikov. In addition to the quality of berries, I would attribute the resistance to diseases (while we have a low infectious background) and the high fruitfulness of the lower eyes to the advantages of these varieties. Some Amur varieties (the same Marinovsky, Amethystovy) are good for making dry rose wines using the “white” method: from pure juice without insisting on pulp.

His second name is "Black Magic" (magical characteristics give every right to call him that). After one year from the day of planting, the vineyard begins to bear fruit. The clusters are not dense and, due to this, hold perfectly on the vine.

1 Platovsky Muscat

The best taste. Most popular variety
Average price: 500 rub.
Rating (2019): 5.0

The most famous hybrid among experienced gardeners. It was created specifically for the processing and manufacture of wine.

Many tasters liked the harmonious taste of berries with a nutmeg flavor. Dessert and table wines are incredibly enjoyable. In addition, gardeners successfully make homemade drinks from this grape. Often Platovsky grapes can be seen as part of the Fanagoria wine.

Beautiful clusters of light green shades decorate the gazebo or courtyard as well as possible. In the garden, such a variety will stand out among other plants. Gardeners note good indicators of frost resistance (up to -30 degrees). The vineyard will not need complex care and shelter for the winter. After ripening, the berry will remain unchanged in its place (on the brush) for another month. Harvest brings sound - 5-6 kg from one bush. Sugar fruits in themselves contain about 20 percent. The only downside is that the berries do not tolerate moving over long distances.

- This is a long-term culture requiring painstaking care from the gardener. The cultivation of grapes in the summer cottage is complicated, because in a small area it is not easy to allocate a lot of space to the vine, to provide the shoots with enough light and heat.

When selecting grape varieties for a personal plot, one must proceed from climatic conditions and, most importantly, from the biological characteristics of the plant.

• Grapes prefer to grow on the sunny side and can not stand the constant shading. When planting in a summer cottage, it is better for the bushes to look for a place on the south side and provide plants with protection from the wind.
• For the most part, grapes are thermophilic and can suffer during wintering or spring frosts.
• The grape needs proper treatment from diseases and pests that cause devastating damage to the crop.
• It is important to choose a plot for grapes with suitable soil for growth, good drainage and warming.

If the gardener manages to create comfortable conditions for the planted bushes, then you can expect a high and high-quality crop.

But grapes selected for planting must be extremely hardy, productive and easy to care for.

One of the oldest and most unpretentious varieties, bred back in the 18th century in the USA, Isabella grapes grow and fruit in many regions with different climatic and soil conditions. On average, 130 to 150 days elapse from opening the buds to ripening of dark blue rounded berries. This grape variety belongs to the table-technical, easily tolerates winter cold and can be grown without additional shelters, resistant to most diseases and phylloxera. Because of its unpretentiousness, Isabella is often used for landscaping.

According to the description and photo, this grape variety in a summer cottage demonstrates a high growth rate. In order not to omit the excessive density of the bushes, which promotes the development of mildew and slows down the ripening of shoots and the accumulation of sugars by berries, the vine is subjected to summer pruning.
