A valuable grapevine collection is housed at the University of California, Davis. Foundation Plant Services at UC Davis accumulated a diverse group of grapevines through long-term collaboration with university scientists and viticulturists and the wine industry in a mutual effort to identify, acquire and develop high-quality wine and table grapes.
Now they are building a
$5.25M greenhouse to protect the vines from diseases and pests. Seems like a strange thing to do, but I guess they know what they're doing.
They've also produced a
book about their collection which details the varieties in stock.
