I'm buying a home near Lake Erie. Specifically the Hamburg to Angola NY area. My girlfriend wants to grow just a few vines in the yard that she can pick for fruit and maybe learn to make a bottle or two a year with.
I'm guessing we'd need a hardy grape due to the cold winters. I know concord is abundant here. I see concord is rated a 4 so I'm guessing 3 or 4 is good for this area. I'm sure we can learn, but something lower maintenance, ie resistant to diseases etc is probably something that we'd want.
What would you recommend? She probably wants a red and a white. I've seen there are some grapes that aren't classified as either. I've seen blue etc. So anything else you'd recommend?
