New Grape Cultivars title launched


In March 2009, Cheviot Publishing launched Prof. PG Goussard’s highly anticipated title: GRAPE CULTIVARS FOR WINE PRODUCTION IN SOUTH AFRICA.

A thorough knowledge of cultivars is essential for vineyard establishment and cultivation, vinification and marketing strategies. In addition to the reliable identification of wine grape cultivars, the values associated with their characteristics, cultivation preferences and cultivation needs cannot be overemphasized – particularly in South African conditions.

GRAPE CULTIVARS features:
* An expert overview on ampelography for cultivar identification,
* International cultivar names spellings,
* Detailed analysis on more than sixty red and white wine grape cultivars,
* Superb full colour photographs of shoot tips, leaves and grape bunches for easy identification,
* Specialist advice on cultivation for quality wine production,
* At-a-glance panels providing comparative detail on origin, growth and yield,
* Highlights internationally recognised synonyms.
* “New” and “alternative” cultivars with reference to more recent imports


GRAPE CULTIVARS is available in Afrikaans and English!! To order your copies, contact Leslé Davids on admin@cheviot-publishing.co.za or call 0861 55 22 11.
