Excerpt from A New Method of Making Dry Red Wine Experiments, made on a sufficiently large scale during the past vintage, have further demonstrated that the method is perfectly adapted to large-scale practice in California, and that it is possible by this means to produce a wine of excellent quality where it had been found impracticable to do so by the old methods. These experiments indicate strongly, moreover, that it is not only possible to make good dry red wine by this means, but that, where the climate is hot during the vintage, it is the simplest and most economical method of attaining the end in View when working on a large industrial scale.

"Bench-Grafting Resistant Vines" is a 1900 treatise by F. T. Bioletti. "Bench grafting" refers to a method of grafting whereby a piece of scion wood is grafted onto a rootstock in order to grow a new tree. It is usually initiated in late winter or early spring and utilises dormant scion wood from a tree of the variety you intend to propagate. Contents include: "Varieties Grafted on Riparia Gloire de Montpellier", "Varieties Grafted on Riparia Grande Glabre", "Varieties Grafted on Rupestris St. George", "Varieties on Their Own Roots", "Experiments Made in 1899", "Grafting", etc. Frederic Theodore Bioletti (1865 - 1939) was an English-born American vintner. He studied at the University of California, Berkeley from 1889 to 1900, where he worked with prominent soil scientist Professor E.W. Hilgard. His work with Hilgard on the fermentation of wines under different conditions were significant in helping California vintners to refine their wine production practices and improving the resulting wines. Bioletti was the first chair of the Department of Viticulture and Enology and founded the grape breeding program at the University of California Agricultural Experiment Station.
