- Planting a new vineyard from scratch is quite hard work but very rewarding.
In this video we show you what we did when our new vines arrived (early) and what we did to get them planted in the ground.
If you want to see my other channel that is completely unrelated to this one then you can do so on this link:

We just wanted to send you a huge thank you for your generous videos on planting a vineyard. On Saturday our small vine friends arrived here in Toscana and we planted 200 vines on solstice coincidently. The night before we stumbled on your fantastic instructions! only thing is we don't have a machine so we had a wonderful workout digging all the holes. Today arms are falling off. Thank you again!
Hi Anna. How exciting. Sounds very idyllic having a planting party in Toscana. Glad you liked the videos. Will make more soon. Good luck with your new vineyard.
@@mycountrylife810 we look forward to watching more on your vineyard videos! We hope its going well, and so nice to be on this journey with you! I suspect you will also include the harvesting and making of wine, as soon you will enter this phase. If I understood correctly, your vineyard was planted 2020?. And, when we are all done here (3-4 years time) we will send you a bottle!
That's extremely kind of you. Will do likewise. It will be interesting to compare notes along the way.....
I cant imagine how much shit and grit our farmers put themselves through i say thanks to em all🙏🏻
this is an amazing instruction video. my wife and family are trying this on our farm field in Canada and your video is very detailed its much appreciated!!
Can not wait to watch the full series
Great video. I've just completed vineyard planting myself, and can confirm that it is quite hard work. This video and others in the series have been very helpful in my vineyard journey.
You might be the most northern vineyard planted in England. I'm in sunny Manchester.
Anyway you deserve a Nobel prize just for that!
Hi there. You may be right :). Although we have a few here in Herefordshire.
Thanks for the video, my dream is to start a Vineyard one day. I will keep these videos as reference. 👍🙏
Hi there. That’s great. Hopefully adding more soon.
Love it.... and inspires me. Nice and simple approach... thank you
Excellent video! Well done! 👌
great video(s) mate! looking forward to following your vineyard adventure! thank you for sharing!
More to come!
Thank You so much
Looking awesome!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Loved your video! It is to the point... well done! I am planning on starting a new vineyard here in North Georgia, USA, and really enjoyed seeing and learning from what you have done so far with your project.
How's the Vineyard going
Hi, this might be a little random, but my partner and I have been contemplating the development of our own vineyard...*also in N. GA* (just south of Cleveland and east of Dahlonega). I'm curious if you went forward with your plans of three years ago and how things have progressed! Cheers! André and Heather
Great video and well explained. Not sure you said anything about it, but did you think about the direction of the rows to maximize sunlight exposure, such as north-south direction, etc?
Hi, your journey with grape vines on videos is really informative. I am from Borneo and wonder if you could share where you got your vines from. Thank you.
Hi there. Thank you😁. Our vines come from the growers in Germany via an importer in the uk who handles all the import paperwork for plays into the uk. I know they only deal with the uk though, which doesn't help you in Borneo. If you google vine wholesale growers in Germany into google, you should be able to find the main growers there. They will distribute all over the world I'm sure. A
I woul planted verdellho vines as well.
It would be an interesting blend even for sparkling wine like…80% bacus and 20% verdelho…it’s my dream…I want to leave majestic wines and start my wine production one day…ASAP…😊
Excellent videos, super clear an uncomplicated. I have just acquired a small finca in Catalunya. I will enjoy cross referencing you work with local resilience =:o
What size posts did you choose? They look like 6” x 10’ with 4’ in the ground?
Hi mate thanks for great video can you please let me know what is distance between each wines. Regards
Hi, love the videos you've done so far I just have a couple of questions I hope you can answer,
1; Why the 20 degree angle on the end posts?
2; how much yield are you expecting for in terms of Litres from this block?
Hi there we are loving your advice and wondered where you got your vines from please?
Hi Ellen.
Give Derek a shout at www.winegrowers.info. they can get lots of different vines and rootstock in for you. A
How long does take before you can harvest them?
Maybe I missed a video. Where did you get the vines? Did you make them yourself or did you order them?
thank you , These videos are so helpful. we are starting a vineyard in Devon. may i ask when is best to plant the vines? our field is about to be ploughed.Also , how did you decide which type to plant?
Hi Carolyn. Best time to plant is in the spring time. Ideally we wanted to plant in March just before the buds start showing, but it ended up in late April after bud burst. It didn't affect the success of the plant. Good luck with your vineyard - sounds exciting.
Greetings from America! Question? Where did you purchase your 300 grape 🍇 plants?
Could you please share the dimensions of the end and intermediate posts? Diameter and length? Thanks
I'm watching this with excitement. How did you acquire your knowledge?
Good question! Lots of reading, asking people and lots of research on the internet. Fortunately there are some excellent vineyards near us too. That said, I know I have, and will make lots of mistakes.
From 300 vines how much of them didnt grow or you have a 100% success?
Btw I never see someone planting a grape already in vegetation with bare root...
Keep up with your videos 👍
how do you determine which vines to plant? website? I want to plant vines in Texas.
Hi there, and thank you for visiting our videos. I think you have a couple factors when choosing your vines. Firstly what type of wine you want to produce, eg, red, white, sweet dry, sparkling, rose etc etc. Secondly, what soil type you have, eg, clay, Sandy, chalky, loamy. There a really good resource I have come across that goes into great detail on the various vines and rootstocks to go for - www.winegrowers.info and how to plant a vineyard. Check them out, I have certainly found them helpful. Good luck.....
What wood did you use for the posts also did you dip the posts in something
Hi there. We have used pine fence posts but we treated them with creosote as the standard preservative that they are initially treated with just does make the last more than a few years.
If you can find Acacia, it category 4, perfect.
Hi, I would like to buy this netting,can you please let me know where you got it from.
Great videos,really enjoyed them.
Hi can i have ur variety if vines from phillipines, im interested
Is it staggered planting?
Hi there. No, we didn't stagger the planting. All the vines are in a grid format.

Hello. I saw someone had a similar question but I didn't see the answer. Can you share where you purchased your vines from please?
Hi there, we purchased from Derek from winegrowers.info He imports from Europe and can get a very wide range of vines and rootstocks
@@mycountrylife810 Thank you so much!
Do the mean Heath Robinson?
Why do the pista have to be at 20° angles?
Hi Stacey. They don't have to be, but there will be quite a lot of strain once all the vine growth is being supported. Putting the posts at an angle helps the posts take the strain.
@@mycountrylife810 thank you so much for your reply! It's very helpful. We need to dig up an existing vineyard this year and replant from scratch. So your Videos are incredibly helpful!
Hi. I'm really enjoying the vineyard videos.
What's the reason for the distance between each vine?
Why aren't they planted close to each other?
Amanda Mudau hi there. The only reason for having the vines about 1.5 metres apart is so that they have a enough space so that the grapes can hang down along the trellis wire. The distance allows about 10 bunches to hang either side of the vine. Ideally you don’t want bunches to develop above the trellis line in what becomes the leaf wall because it makes harvesting more difficult and also you want the vine to put all its energy in a select few bunches rather than lots all over the place. Hope this helps.
@@mycountrylife810 thank you so much.
Very informative
Scion is pronounced as if it says sion, not skion.
dude. the green wax coated part is the graft union . . . . you planted your stuff WAY to high
Hi Jak. The graft union is much lower down from the wax. There is a distinction between the graft and the root stock. The wax is there to protect the very young vines from drying out and to protect those initial buds.
@@mycountrylife810 I think you are wrong.
The grafted part of vine is about 5cm the rest is rootstock.
Sir you can do a voice-over because your voice is incomprehensible.
Hi there, Sorry that I am difficult to hear in this video. I have activated subtitles, so that they can appear on screen as I speak. I think you can activate this in options>captions on. Have a great day in the meantime and thank you for watching.
