I am too young to drink Wine. So this does aswell!

Introduction

According to the ancient Greeks, it was aDemi-God, Dionysius, who taught them the pleasures of making wineand drinking it. No wonder he was always shown with grapevineleaves around his head.

The Romans called him Bacchus and alsoEleutherios which meant the Liberator - photo 3

The Romans called him Bacchus and alsoEleutherios, which meant the Liberator. The idea was those takingpart in celebrating his existence were free from care and worry.That was because they drank freely of the fruit of the grape duringtheir Bacchanals.

A Greek friend told me that according toGreek legend, Dionysius was supposed to have come to India, andAlexander the great during his conquest entered an Eastern citycalled Nysa , of which the inhabitants told him of its raising bythis demi-God. He taught them practices which were incorporated intheir own social rituals and festivals.

Ah, well, that is a good myth, but then winewas definitely not unknown in the East. It was one of the firstgourmet pleasures discovered and appreciated for millenniums. So ifthis demigod came to the Indian subcontinent he would have been fedMadira or Soma Rasa -the ancient and traditional drink of thegods!

The names Dennis, Denise and Dion arederivatives from this original Greek name.

So for all of us who would like to raise atoast to the gods in a glass of homemade wine, this book is goingto teach you how you can grow vines very successfully in sunnyatmospheres. After that, it is going to teach you how to make winesfor home consumption.

If you look at winemaking practices, whichare being practiced today, it is a very scary and complicatedprocess. This is because of our usage of complex and complicatedtools. The practices I am going to teach you have been in use forcenturies. You are not going to be buying expensive tools. You aregoing to be making wine, the traditional way.

Growing Grape Vines

You need a sunny atmosphere in which to growgrapevines They do not enjoy too - photo 5

You need a sunny atmosphere in which to growgrapevines. They do not enjoy too much of the frost. However, manynew varieties are available today, which do not need lots of sun.You may want to ask your local nursery for these righties dependingon your location.

Desert grapes are very attractive anddelicious. It is necessary to protect them from gales, so grow themin sheltered areas.

Preparation of the soil

The grapevines grown on their own roots arenot particularly fussy about the soil, but the site has to be welldrained and tolerably rich in organic compost. They are going to dowell in normal soil but on very rich soil, they may give too muchleaf. While they may grow on very poor soil, such as gravel, sand,and chalk, they are not going to give you the best results unlessyou keep on adding mixed fertilizer regularly to the soil.

When you are preparing the site, dig deepinto the ground to break up any hard soil below the surface. If thesoil is poor, apply bone meal at the rate of half a pound firstgraveyard.

Planting your vines

Buy plants which are one year old. Theseplans have already established roots. And if they are to be grownwith the support of a wall, it is best to plant them so that themain stem can be trained horizontally.

If several horizontal stems are needed, it isbest to make each one from a separate vine. These grapevines can begrown close together.

If you are growing these vines apart in theopen, plant them in rows 4 feet apart. The distance between therows should be 3 feet, so that you can walk about them freely, andalso use gardening tools and implements.

Plant in the spring unless the site is wellprotected from cold Otherwise - photo 6

Plant in the spring, unless the site is wellprotected from cold. Otherwise, these plants are going to die offin a wet and hard winter if they have only just been moved.

Maintenance

These need occasional shallow digging andhoeing to keep down the weeds. Let the weeds grow in the autumn anddig them out shallowly in the winter. They are now going to be yourcompost. As the vines are extremely deep-rooted they will notsuffer from drought or damage by shallow digging after the secondyear.

These vines, however, are extremelysusceptible to drought in the first spring after planting. They aregoing to need watering until they are established and growing fast.Cold winds in the spring may kill many vines in their first year ifthey are dry at the roots.

If the vines are in normal soil, they willgrow at least one feet high in the second year, and in rich soil 5feet in the first year. If they do not reach 5 feet in the secondyear, apply organic fertilizer. This rate of growth is the onlycriterion for adding more fertilizer.

Do not mulch or cultivate in early springbecause if the soil is covered or is very loose your plants aremore liable to damage from spring frost. That is because the soilis going to stay colder for a longer period of time.
