Description
The table grape vine ‘Pizzutello Nero’ produces somewhat sparse, cylindrical to pyramidal clusters with large, elongated, conical berries, with thick and dark purple powdery skin. The flesh is sweet, crunchy and juicy. It is an ideal variety for table consumption. Each cluster weighs on average 400 to 600 g. Harvest takes place between late September and early October, depending on the region. This productive and vigorous vine thrives in the sun in well-drained soil. Train it against a well exposed wall or let it run on a trellis or a pergola.
Like all grapevines, Vitis vinifera ‘Pizzutello Nero’ belongs to the Vitaceae family. The vine is a sarmentous and climbing bush that forms a trunk over time, often knotty and twisted. Its long stems, or canes, bear green, dissected and toothed leaves. They offer beautiful colours in autumn, ranging from yellow to orange. In spring (May-June), it bears insignificant, small green flowers in dense clusters.
This self-fertile Italian variety benefits from abundant and constant production. It offers medium-sized, cylindrical to pyramidal, not very compact clusters. The berries are quite large, elongated and conical, dark violet red and covered with bloom. The flesh is crunchy, juicy and sweet. These pleasantly flavoured grapes are mostly used for fresh consumption, but they can also be used to make juices, jams or jellies. This selection has some sensitivity to powdery mildew and downy mildew.
Like all table grapevines, plant your ‘Pizzutello Nero’ vine in the sun, trained against an exposed wall, on a trellis or a pergola. Planting in a pot on a terrace is also possible. This decorative and delicious plant will find a place in all gardens. Associate the ‘Pizzutello Nero’ table grape vine with intensely dark red fruits with the ‘Palatina’ vine with golden berries to vary flavours and colours.

Planting and care
The 'Pizzutello Nero' Vine thrives in the sun in well-drained soils, even poor ones. It dislikes stagnant moisture. Plant it in well-worked soil enriched with organic fertiliser or compost. Once established, the vine can withstand summer drought. It can tolerate temperatures as low as -14°C for short periods and enjoys long, hot summers for good fruiting. Train your vine against a wall or let it run on a trellis or pergola.
In spring, remove sterile, weak, or misplaced shoots to redirect all sap to the fruit-bearing stems. Once the berries have formed, prune again, leaving 2 or 3 leaves above each cluster. Take the opportunity to remove excess foliage. To avoid exhausting your vine, leave one cluster per shoot in the first year, then two in the second year, and so on. These spring and summer prunings are called fruiting prunings. Their purpose is to obtain fuller clusters and larger berries. In winter (outside the frost period), shorten the stems that produced fruit the previous year.
To prevent powdery mildew and downy mildew, treat your vine in spring and during the summer with Bordeaux mixture and/or flowers of sulphur, especially if you live in a rainy region.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).

In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
