Vitis vinifera 'Bacchus'

This Product is Available Now.

Supplied as a grafted vine approximately 12" - 18" (30 - 45 cm) tall including roots.

Sometimes known as 'Bacchusrebe' - but as Bacchus was the God of Wine (in mythological times) we prefer its commonly accepted name of Bacchus.

Originating from Germany this white variety is similar to Müller-Thurgau in flavour but with a better habit, and is now a popular variety in commercial UK vineyards as it makes a most agreeable wine - but it is also an excellent grape for eating.

• Originally from Germany.
• Parentage - (Silvaner x Riesling) x Müller-Thurgau.
• Mid-Season fruit ripening.
• Winter wood ripening is fair - so can be grown both outdoors or under protection (greenhouse, polytunnel or conservatory).
• Can be trained using either the cane replacement method or spur pruning.
• Self fertile.
• Fruit contains seeds.
