Vitis vinifera ?Cabernet Sauvignon?

Cabernet Sauvignon Grape

Cabernet Sauvignon Grape produces dark blue, thick-skinned berries associated with full-flavored red wines. It is best suited to sites with a long, hot growing season.

The vine can become a productive part of a home wine-grape planting where summer warmth allows the fruit to mature fully. Good drainage is important across the range of soils it can tolerate.

Use a sunny, warm position with a firm support and space for seasonal training.
