What Kind of Grapes Grow Well in the Tropics?
A friend and I are looking into buying private island property together and opening a vineyard and maybe later expanding to other libations. Our first thought was a nice island in the tropics seeing as all the Mediterranean islands are pretty expensive. The question we’re trying to answer now is "Is it feasible to grow wine grapes on a tropical island and if so what kind of grapes would be best suited for the climate?"
Nowadays with the selection of best grapes, we can have grapes in tropics. Most of the grapes varieties that are planted in tropics can withstand high temperature and humidity. Some of commonly use varieties are white malaga, black grapes, black opal and loose pelite.
