Description
SAUVIGNON RYTOS (10 pieces)
These are protected varieties with a monopoly, the reproduction or multiplication of which is prohibited without the consent of the breeders, and with the purchase you undertake not to reproduce or multiply the variety.
WHITE GRAPE VARIETY OBTAINED BY CROSSING SAUVIGNON AND BIANCA (COD. UD. 55-100)
Graft carrier 1103P - K5BB - S04 - 140RU - 420A (Graft carrier available at the time will be sent)
Resistance characteristics: Good and very good resistance to downy mildew (Rpv 3) and powdery mildew (Ren 3). Sensitive to botrytis due to high bunch compactness and tolerant to black rot. Resistant to winter cold down to -23°C
AMPELOGRAPHIC CHARACTERS
Leaf characters are similar to those noted for the parent Sauvignon. Cluster of medium length, cylindrical, compact. A short wing is rarely present. Berry is small, ellipsoidal in shape. The skin is thin with medium bloom, green in colour with golden highlights. The flesh is soft with a neutral flavour.
VEGETATIVE PHENOMENA
- Sprouting time: medium-late.
- Blossoming time: medium.
- Grape ripening time: medium.
- Production: medium-high.
CULTIVATION APTITUDES
Vigorous vine, with semi-erect, sometimes drooping vegetation. Needs green pruning to limit vegetative development.
TRAINING AND PRUNING
Adapts to various forms of cultivation, preferring however those with long Guyot-type pruning.
OENOLOGICAL POTENTIAL
Good sugar accumulation capacity, as well as the level of fixed acidity in the must. The free and glycosidic aromatic compounds are higher than the varietal average and express tropical scents associated with a marked minerality. This variety lends itself to giving wines with an aromatic framework characterised by more than positive and very complex potential intensity and breadth, suitable for young consumption and also for prolonged ageing.
AWARDS

RULES TO PLANT A VINEYARD
1. PLOW
You must perform this operation always with dry soil
A) On arable land is generally sufficient to ripper + to plow
B) On planting soil is generally sufficient to plow with an escavator and to clean the old roots.
If the previous crop was a vineyard, it is a good idea to leave the soil fallow for at least three years (after plowing). This procedure represents a valid possibility of defence against soil nematodes.
2. SOIL FERTILIZATION
Use organics and if it is a reimplantation, use Calciumocyanamide.
This fertiliser has a protective effect on the soil and the crop, especially against fungi.
3.PROPAGATING GRAPE VINE CUTTINGS
The planting should be carried out in temperate soil. The grafting point should be 8-10 cm above ground. Avoid shaving the redices. As much as possible, put sand and/or peat in contact with the roots (the root fears asphyxiation, while it needs a micro-oxygenation). Never fertilize in a localized manner (near the roots). Never water the rooted cuttings before summer.
4.SPRING WORKS
When sprouting, the root apparatus must be heated as soon as possible. Work the soil repeatedly every 7/10 days at increasing depth (up to 20 cm), taking into account the moisture of the soil. When the apex of the bud starts to grow, it means that the root system is functioning. Only then can we stop watering the soil. Failure to grow due to access to water is often confused with a lack of water. This is why watering is used which is expensive, useless or even worse.
5.SPRING CURE
Protect vegetation from Peronospora. To each treatment add nitrogen (N) and iron (Fe) foliar fertilizer. Do not make any radical fertilization.
6.SUMMER CURE
Continue with the defense against Peronospora by suspending the addition of the foliar fertilizer. This defense should be reinforced in late summer and should be continued until vegetation growth stops.
The September/October blight is destructive, to the point of bringing death to the whole plant (if it has not lignified). The rooted vine lacks clusters, so lignification occurs at the end of the vegetative cycle.
7.TECHNICAL VISIT
If incomprehensible anomalies persist after this procedure, contact an agronomist or the VCR Technical Service promptly before carrying out arbitrary procedures which may be unsuitable, expensive and/or worsening.
