Grape Pixie? ‘Pinot Noir’
Discover the world?s first compact wine grape ? the Pixie grape! A naturally dwarf variety, Grape Pixie ‘Pinot Noir’ grows just 30-50 cm per year, making it the perfect choice for small spaces like terraces, balconies, or even urban gardens. Unlike traditional vines that can take years to produce fruit, the Pixie grape starts bearing small clusters of fruit in its very first year! What?s more, it continues to flower and produce grapes throughout the summer and into autumn, offering an extended growing season. This makes it an ideal choice for year-round cultivation in small greenhouses. The Pixie grape?s unique growth habit means it has short stems and focuses energy on producing flowers instead of tendrils, resulting in numerous small fruit clusters ? each around 10 cm in size. As a hardy, cooler-climate variety, Pixie ‘Pinot Noir’ grapes yield young, fruity wines with notes of cherry and raspberry, which age into more complex, vegetal aromas. With a variety of Pixie grape options available, you can create your own selection of wines, all within even the smallest growing spaces. These low-maintenance vines are perfect for beginners, offering an easy and rewarding introduction to wine-growing.
