D1: The Vine: Background: Ernst Ruhl on Geisenheim Root Stock Breeding


Professor Ernst Ruhl from the Geisenheim Grape Breeding Institute explains how root stocks are bred in this third interview.

We hear how different root stocks are needed for different types of soils and how it takes two or three generations to breed new root stocks - the equivalent of a human's entire working life. Ernst also tells us how the vine's root system is critical to managing the supply of water to the plant and grapes and how factors such as irrigation influence the type of root stock that is required.

Our clients say...

I thought the questions were excellent, an extremely valuable revision tool. They really helped highlight areas I thought I had revised and understood but clearly had not, which has enabled me to focus on key areas to revisit and study before going into the exam... I think it is a great resource and an essential revision aid for any WSET 3 students wishing to gain a competitive edge and successfully pass the WSET 3 exam.
