Harvest is wrapping up in Nova Scotia wine growing region. The last month climatic conditions allowed an extension of the growing season which helped to achieve good maturity levels. Currently, most of the grapes are under fermentation, except the vineyards destined for late harvest or ice wine.
In this publication, Perennia wants to share the recent
paper published about the terroir study performed in Nova Scotia.
Perennia performed a terroir study in the Annapolis valley
from 2017 to 2019, with the main goal to collect data from the grape varieties
grown in the province and evaluate them under local conditions for wine
production in Nova Scotia. All the results were shared each year of the study
through in-person presentations, executive summaries and best practices
sessions, with the main goal to improve the vineyard management and produce the
best wines!
Recently, we published a paper to present the results of
this study, such as grapevine growth pattern through each season, main
phenological stages, climatic information, fruit characteristics and others.

Hybrids and Vitis vinifera Varieties Established in Annapolis Valley (Nova
Scotia).
