I would like to add a red and white variety to mine home vineyard . I planted Frontenac and Frontenac Gris last spring. For this spring I was considering Marquette for a red and La Crecent for the white .
From what I have read about the La Crecent it requires a very good spray program . I am not familiar with required spraying as I am just getting started should this be a factor in my choice? My second choice for a white grape would be St Pepin it looks to be more disease resistant. Has anyone had any experience with St Pepin? Will it stand alone for making a nice white wine? Does anyone have any other suggestions for varieties? I needwinter hardiness to25-30 below zero.
