grapevine leaf roll
I'm nearly certain that the 10 new Cabernet Sauvignon vines I planted
this spring are infected with grapevine leafroll virus (GLV). By
mid-summer the leaves started to exhibit the classic inter-veinal
reddening and downard rolling of leaf margins. From what little I've
read, it seems that the virus is typically propagated through cuttings
and secondary vectors not spread from plant to plant by contact or
seed.
Anyone have experience with this? I purchased these vines from Double
A vineyards in NY. Should I ask for replacement vines?
