Rootstock selection plays a large role in the success of a vineyard.  Join the Lodi Winegrape Commission and E & J Gallo for in-field discussions with Dr. Andy Walker, Dr. Peter Cousins, and other experts as we take a closer look at the decades-long Gallo Liberty Ranch trial (Cabernet Sauvignon & Chardonnay on various rootstocks) and a GRN rootstock trial (Malbec).  Guests will park and start the morning at Liberty Ranch on the corner of Acampo Rd & 21101 N Kennefick Rd, moving to another vineyard to view the GRN trial via a shuttle, and ending the event at the Gallo office for lunch.  The full agenda and event details are below.  We hope that you can join us!
