Newbie here- trying to identify my grape vine...

:D Hi, thanks for taking your time to look at this post.

I live in Chelmsford in the UK and have just moved into a new home. I’m very excited to say I have a well established grape vine, but I’m struggling to work out what type I have- google has let me down!! If you see the photos the leaves don’t all seem to be the same shape! :/

I have loads of fruit on the vine and would like to use it in whichever manner is best suited. I’d love to try making wine but don’t want to waste grapes if they’re not up to the job, and similarly I don’t want to make a load of grape jam when it could be wine :)

Any advice or pointers would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks! Ali

It would help a lot if you could get your Variety identified Elysian.
Look in your local directory to see if there is a vineyard near you. I’m sure they would be willing to try to help you.
From this you can decide what’s best to do with them.
