super cold-hardy
varieties
We offer a specialized selection of super cold-hardy vines, tailored for regions that experience harsh winters and require greater resilience. These varieties are specifically bred to withstand extreme cold, making them ideal for growers in climates where durability and adaptability are essential.
​
A super cold-hardy varietal can survive winter temperatures as low as -20°F (-29°C) and adapt to shorter growing seasons. These vines are frost-resistant, able to ripen early, and are often bred with natural resistance to common cold-weather diseases. Varietals like Frontenac, Marquette, and Kay Gray are examples of the types of vines we offer, proven to thrive in colder regions.
​
Located in the Finger Lakes region of New York, we have firsthand experience with the unique challenges posed by shorter growing seasons. Our team understands the demands of these conditions, allowing us to offer expert guidance and support, ensuring your vineyard flourishes—even in the most demanding environments.
