Plant in well-drained, fertile soil. Grapevines prefer slightly alkaline soil, so a soil test may help to ensure the best conditions for growth. Avoid heavy, clay soils that can retain too much moisture.Pruning:
This grapevine falls under Pruning Group 2, meaning it requires careful pruning. Prune back old growth after fruiting to maintain a productive vine and to encourage strong new growth for the following season's crop.Support:
Provide a sturdy trellis, wire system, or natural structure for the vine to climb. Soft ties can be used to train the vine as it grows, ensuring it doesn't become tangled or misshapen.
