Description
An excellent flavoured flavoured pale plum-coloured grape with a very high sugar content. This really is a gorgeously sweet grape to eat - almost like eating a mixture of honey and dessert wine
This is also a popular variety for the English wine industry; it actually performs better here in the UK than it does in its native Germany. Alan Rowe, author of the acclaimed book 'Successful Grape Growing for Eating and Wine-Making' says of Schönburger, "if I was planting a new vineyard in Suffolk this would be my first choice".
- Originally from Germany.
- Parentage - Pinot Noir x (Chasselas x Muscat Hamburg).
- Mid-Season fruit ripening.
- Winter wood ripening is good - so can be grown both outdoors or under protection.
- Can be trained using either the cane replacement method or spur pruning.
