Vitis 'Frontenac'
Vitis ‘Frontenac’ is an extremely hardy grapevine developed for the production of red grapes in cold climates. This vigorous variety exhibits a twining climbing habit, capable of quickly covering trellises, pergolas, and training systems, forming a dense canopy during the season. Its deciduous, medium green foliage supports an abundant production of compact clusters with blue-black berries at maturity. The grapes, rich in sugar and natural acidity, are particularly prized for making colored and structured red wines suitable for northern regions. Maturation typically occurs in early autumn depending on local conditions. Adapted to well-drained soils and sunny exposures, Vitis ‘Frontenac’ is an excellent choice for growers and gardeners seeking a reliable, productive, and high-performing grapevine in harsh climates.
