Abstract
Fer is a French variety known to produce concentrated wines of good colour with a medium to full body. Wine aroma and flavour are typified by dark fruits and spice with soft tannins.
Fer grapevines were evaluated for fruit and wine production in Manjimup from 2007 to 2010.
Fer was found to be late ripening when grown here although it showed good disease resistance.
