Grape Vine Saint Laurent

With Pinot Noir as one of its parents, this relatively new variety is excellent for wine-making, but with its greater sweetness is also a flavoursome eating grape.

The almost-black grapes may be relatively small in size but they are packed full of juice and flavour. Combine this with the fact that it really will produce a reliable crop outside and you have a valuable and worthwhile variety that really does deserve more recognition and recommendation.

• Late-season fruit ripening.
• Winter wood ripening is good - so can be grown both outdoors or under protection (greenhouse, polytunnel or conservatory).
