So, I am actuall winemaker and wine grower myself and I am a bit sceptical about all of this.

Did you actually get any fruit already? What is the yield per plant? What are you going to do with the wood after the fruit is set: are you overwintering it or throwing away?

Thanks for your questions!

I have gotten fruit. About 50% of the cuttings I use produce fruit right now. I am still working to optimize the process. I throw the cuttings away after they produce fruit. More cuttings can be collected each year as canes are pruned in the vineyard.
