Description
The 'Cayuga' vine is a hybrid variety bred at Cornell University, renowned for its productivity and versatility. It produces large clusters of golden-green grapes with a sweet, slightly muscatel flavor, ideal for table or winemaking. In wine, it produces aromatic, lively, and refreshing whites, sometimes sparkling. It exhibits excellent resistance to common grapevine diseases, making it very attractive to home gardeners and small producers. Its rapid growth and vigorous habit make it easy to grow on trellises or pergolas. Placed in full sun and in well-drained soil, 'Cayuga' ensures a generous and regular harvest, while providing ornamental interest thanks to its dense foliage.
