Grape 'Bacchus'

Originating from Germany, Grape Bacchus is one of the best white wine varieties for growing outdoors in the UK. Named after Bacchus, the Roman god of wine, it is no surprise that this cultivar is grown in commercial vineyards up and down the country, producing delicious wines similar in taste to Sauvignon Blanc. However, the fruit can also be enjoyed fresh from the vine, with its sweet flavour and thin skin making it an excellent table grape.

Bacchus is a climbing plant that requires little maintenance and is easy to grow. It prefers a sunny, sheltered spot and thrives in well-drained, neutral to slightly alkaline soil. Protect new growth from frost and mulch annually in spring to help retain moisture in the soil.

Please Note: When purchasing plants, please consider that each live item is unique and may therefore differ from the images shown, which are for illustration purposes only. The plant will be supplied in a growers pot. Depending on season, some plants may be pruned back to encourage growth and deciduous plants may arrive without leaves.
