Abstract
Issued circa 1990, this publication is a collaborative effort between the New York Wine & Grape Foundation and the Communications Services unit of the New York State Agricultural Experiment Station, Cornell University, Geneva NY. This is the only report in the series (although subsequent titles were originally planned). It describes 33 varieties of Vitis vinifera which were evaluated for potential use in New York State –of those, 11 are recommended. Some history and background information is given as well as regional precipitation and temperature data for grape test sites.
