Growing season is over. The Vidal Blanc vines did very well for their first year, much better than expected. (Pic attached) The Chardonnay plants did terrible (pic attached) and seem to barely be hanging on. I may see what happens next year and then take them out to replace w a Pinot Nero or Cabernet Hybrid.
I may have viable fruit next year on the Vidal Blanc plants to make some wine. Should be ready for spring game 2020.
And yes the pics are sideways... idc

Good hops = noble hops = the Old Country.
That's why yer Pilsner Urquells, your Stellas, your Budwars, etc. are so delicious.

It’s located in the correct climate zone for vinifera varietals or Hybrids. I used clone plants from a reputable online dealer.
Probably plant some red this spring. Maybe Cabernet franc or a hybrid red.
