About ten years ago a planting of American hybrid grape cultivars was started at the Merbein field station of the CSIRO Division of Horticultural Research. Merbein is a semi-arid irrigation area of the Murray Valley in north-west Victoria, Australia. Mean maximum temperature during the hottest months is about 32°C and the relative humidity is low. Soils are highly alkaline and the soil type supporting the planting, Coomealla sandy loam (2), has a brown sandy loam above a light brown sandy clay sub-soil containing moderate amounts of lime and rubble. Soils of this kind are widespread in the area.
