2-3ft 'Pinot Noir' Grape Vine | 3L Pot
Seedless black grape perfect for wine-making
The 'Pinot Noir' vine is a popular and classic variety of wine making grape. The plump, black fruits have a rich taste with crisp firm skin and juicy pulp. Highly versatile, the fruit can be eaten fresh from the vine as well as being made into wine.
Hardy and reliable, this grape is self-fertile and will produce compact clusters of grapes in the autumn. With its gorgeous green foliage and blue-black fruit it also would make a wonderful ornamental plant adding plenty of colour and interest to your garden. This vine can be grown outside and is happiest when placed in a sunny but sheltered position.

- Dig a hole that is twice the radius of your plant’s rootball.
- Before planting, drench the rootball.
- Place the pot in the planting hole, making sure that it sits no lower than an inch below the ground.
- Fill the planting hole with a mix of compost and garden soil, finishing with fertiliser and mycorrhizal fungi. Take care to not compress the soil.
- Provide your plant with a generous watering.
- Add mulch on top, (whether bark and wood chippings, compost, manure, leaf-mould, and stones). Try to keep the mulch from touching the stem.
Advice on hot and droopy plants
If your plants are looking a little wilted right now, don’t worry! Plants like to be filled with water to keep their structure, and when it’s hot that water evaporates.
Just give them an off-schedule watering and they’ll be right as rain in no time! Be careful not to flood them - plants don’t like extremes.
- Hardiness: While grapes originate from the Mediterranean and Central Asia, they are hardy enough to survive the UK's winters. However, they can sometimes suffer from frost damage. To avoid this, try to plant them in a south-facing location.
- Position: When it comes to grapes, planting in full sun is always recommended.
- Soil: Grape vines benefit from deeper soils, but 3ft is still adequate. Although the fertility and granularity of the soil determines fruit size, a smaller size is less of an issue with these plants. This is because their primary use is often wine making, where smaller fruits are preferred.
