    An excellent table grape with large bunches of golden berries with a thin skin and juicy pulp, and having a ‘Muscat’ flavour with a pleasant floral character. ‘Exalta’ also bears handsome trilobate, serrated vine leaves that provide pleasing shade or as stuffing cases for culinary dishes.

  • Garden care: When planting incorporate plenty of well-rotted organic matter in to the planting hole. It will need some help to clamber up a tree, wall or pergola so you will need to provide some support and tie it in as it grows. Once it has developed a good framework you should shorten all the lateral shoots to within two or three buds from the main stem. It is essential that the majority of the pruning work is tackled in mid winter as the sap tends to 'bleed' at other times of the year, but you can cut back the odd over-long stem to a healthy bud in summer.
  • Dogs: Harmful if eaten
