Advantages and disadvantages
Any grape variety has both advantages and disadvantages, “Nadezhda AZOS” is no exception.
The positive characteristics of the variety include:
- High yield.
- Stable fruit ripening.
- Resistance to some diseases.
- Long shelf life.
- Pleasant taste.
- Good transport tolerance.
In addition, the variety is resistant to drought and frost.
Among the disadvantages of the variety are:
- Problems with pollination under unfavorable weather conditions.
- Possibility of cracking of berries.
- Difficulty in rooting cuttings in the ground.
It should also be taken into account that too high a yield can cause damage to the vine, which often cannot support the weight of the bunches.
Flaws
But the variety is not without its shortcomings. Among them:
- Poor survival rate of cuttings. They are quite difficult to take root.
- Cracking of berries and difficulty in pollination in waterlogged conditions.
- Heterogeneity of berries. One cluster can contain both large and smaller berries. In addition, not all fruits often ripen, which naturally does not look very attractive.
- Constant overload. It is impossible to do without rationing.
Also, many gardeners do not like the frequent damage to berries by wasps. But this is difficult to consider as a disadvantage, since every second variety is susceptible to such attacks.
Origin
“Nadezhda AZOS” is a hybrid form of table grape, bred in the 70s. XX century breeders of the Anapa Zonal Station of Horticulture and Viticulture. The famous grape varieties “Moldova” and “Cardinal” were chosen as parent plants.
Parents of “Nadezhda AZOS” – “Cardinal” and “Moldova”
The “Cardinal” variety has extremely weak resistance to fungal diseases, so it is not cultivated today, but its fruits have an excellent taste, which “Nadezhda AZOS” managed to convey.
Also, the use of “cardinal” when creating a new variety made it possible to achieve an earlier ripening period, since the “Moldova” crop, despite its abundance and stability, ripens extremely late.
Reference! The variety was included in the State Register in 1998 with limited access to cultivation in the North Caucasus region.
Care
As stated above, Nadezhda AZOS is prone to overloads. Therefore, the main direction of care should be aimed at normalizing the load. If this is not done, the berries will begin to become smaller, and the ripening period will be significantly delayed. In addition, the fruits will lose their sugar content and become unpleasantly sour.
To prevent this, you need to follow the following rules:
- Trim bushes regularly.
- This is best done in autumn or spring.
- Pruning of the vine is carried out at 7-10 eyes.
Rooting problems may also occur. This problem can only be solved in one way - by purchasing a healthy cutting. Therefore, when choosing a future bush, pay attention to its appearance and the period of time during which it lay after being separated from the mother bush.
Characteristics
The variety is characterized by high (80-90%) fruitfulness and ripening of shoots along the entire length. On average, you can collect about 25 kg of berries from 1 bush.
Maturation period and class
“Nadezhda AZOS” is a medium-early ripening table grape variety - the harvest can be harvested 120-130 days after the buds swell.
Bush
The Nadezhda AZOS grape is a vigorous bush with a dark brown and rough surface of the trunk, with a thick, strong central vine, the length of which reaches 3.5 m. Young shoots are green in color, have 3 inflorescences, from which large clusters are formed over time .
The leaf blades are round in shape, large, five-lobed, with uneven edges, colored rich green, and characterized by cobweb-like lower pubescence. The cuttings are thick, a shade darker than the leaves.
During flowering, bisexual flowers are formed on the shoots, which makes the variety capable of self-pollination.
bunches
The clusters are loose or medium-dense, have a conical, branched or wide-conical shape, located on thick, hard stalks 30-45 cm long. The weight of each cluster varies from 500 g to 1.5 kg.
Berries
The berries are ellipsoidal in shape, reach 30 mm in length, 25 mm in width and weigh 8 g each. Covered with dense, thin and elastic skin of a rich blue color with a black tint. The skin has a light waxy coating, which makes the berries look dusty.
The pulp is light pink, elastic, juicy and crispy; some berries have 3 small seeds inside.
The fruits contain 14-17% sugar and 6-8 g/l acid.
Taste
The berries have a sweet taste with moderate sourness. The fruits of “AZOS hope” are unsuitable for wine production.
What type does it belong to?
The Nadezhda AZOS grape is popular among Russian gardeners due to its excellent characteristics, which allow it to produce a rich harvest with a sweet, harmonious taste , despite the harsh weather conditions in which it has to grow.
This vine is a table variety with a dark blue (black) color.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Table grapes are suitable for consumption in finished form. (Does not require additional processing) It also has a pleasant aroma, taste and attractive appearance of both berries and bunches in general.
Table varieties also include Karmakod, Bull's Eye and Zarya Nesvetaya.

Reproduction
The easiest way to propagate Nadezhda AZOS is to use cuttings. After autumn pruning, any winegrower is left with a lot of mature vines that have been pruned and which can be perfectly rooted in the spring. Here you can read a detailed article about pruning, but in short.
- At the end of October-beginning of November, cut cuttings from a mature vine into 3 buds;
- Put them in the cellar for the winter; if the quantity is small, then in the refrigerator;
- In March, take out the cuttings, renew the cuts with a sharp knife or pruning shears, soak them in water for a day, treat the lower part of the cuttings with Kornevin or Clonex gel (expensive, but very effective);
- Pour 7-10 mm into the bath. water and place all the cuttings vertically in it, after about 2-3 weeks the roots will appear.
- As soon as the roots reach a size of about 5-7 mm. - plant the cuttings in cups and then transplant them into open ground somewhere in late May - early June, when the threat of return frosts has passed.
Experienced winegrowers increase the yields of the variety they like by grafting; we also have a separate article about this method. The easiest way is to tilt the young vine to the ground, lightly pull the shoot with a wire at the point of contact with the ground, lightly scratch the lines on the surface of the vine with a knife, and sprinkle the place where the wire is tied with earth. In the future, you will only need to keep the soil moist.
Features of cultivation
To be convinced of all the advantages of the variety and to obtain a bountiful and high-quality harvest, it is necessary to follow the rules of plant care and carry out all agrotechnical procedures.
Trimming
Pruning the “AZOS Hope” bushes is a mandatory agrotechnical procedure, without the correct implementation of which it is impossible to guarantee good vine growth and crop ripening. Pruning should be done in the fall, 3 weeks after the leaves fall.
This variety is suitable for standard formation of a bush with a single-arm cordon. The stem should be formed up to 120 cm and 24-25 stems with 40 buds should be left on an adult plant.
Important! Vines that are too short cannot support the weight of the crop.
Diseases and pests
The variety has a 4-point resistance to mildew and oidium, a 2-point resistance to gray rot and requires special preventive measures against anthracnose, chlorosis, bacterial cancer or rubella. You can learn about the system of grape resistance to diseases and pests in a separate article.
Speaking of insects, it should be noted that wasps practically do not harm the fruits, however, the plant can be attacked by scale insects and grape mites.
Frost resistance
“AZOS Hope” bushes can withstand temperatures down to -22 °C. When growing the variety in the southern regions, it is not necessary to cover the vine, but the roots should still be insulated with a layer of mulch or soil. In temperate climates, after pruning, grapes should be removed from the trellis and covered with straw.
Option for covering grapes for the winter
Bushes older than 3 years, with a strong and developed root system, after freezing are able to fully recover in the spring.
Harvest storage
Timely harvested fruits are stored in the refrigerator for a month, however, according to gardeners, many manage to preserve the harvest until the New Year.
Description of the variety
The Nadezhda Azos grape bushes obviously belong to the vigorous group and have such powerful growth energy that they require mandatory annual formation and pruning. The dark green leaves are very large in size, have three or five lobes and dense cobwebby pubescence. The bunches are firmly attached to the shoots with thick stalks.
The flowers are bisexual, which means that Azos grapes do not need additional pollinators. True, this grape variety is not characterized by the best pollination of flowers in rainy weather. In this regard, the opinions of winegrowers differ: some complain about poor pollination and, as a consequence, cluster set, others admire the fact that Nadezhda Azos shows good set even during weeks of heavy rains. Apparently, a lot depends on the characteristics of caring for grape bushes - this variety, due to its high growth energy, has a tendency to thicken with shoots. All weak shoots must be removed either during autumn pruning or in spring, otherwise, due to excessive thickening, the ovaries may fall off.
Advice! It is advisable to maintain an average load on an adult Azos grape bush in the region of 25-30 shoots.
The fruitfulness of the shoots is quite high - on average it is 80-90%. The ripening of shoots is good along their entire length.
From three to five clusters can form on the vine; the bush will strive to carry the entire formed harvest, and in order not to overstrain its strength, it is necessary to leave no more than one or two clusters on each shoot.
The rooting ability of cuttings of this variety is rather weak and unstable. For example, roots may form, but the eyes will not wake up. On average, judging by reviews from gardeners, only 50-70% of Nadezhda Azos grape cuttings turn into full-fledged healthy bushes.
Nadezhda Azos grape bushes produce fruit quite quickly. The first small, so-called signal clusters, are usually removed the next year after the seedlings are planted. Every year, the yield itself, the size of the clusters, and the stability of fruiting only increase. In general, the yield indicators of this variety are at a very high level; from one adult bush you can easily get up to 30 kg of grapes.
Based on the ripening period, the originators classify Nadezhda Azos grapes as early varieties, but based on the experience of growing them in most regions, they should rather be classified as mid-early varieties. It takes about 120-130 days from the swelling of the buds to the ripening of the berries. It should also be borne in mind that the bud break and flowering of Nadezhda Azos is very late. In terms of flowering time, this variety is one of the latest, which is a great advantage for all regions with unstable weather conditions during spring. But subsequently, the grape shoots grow and develop so quickly that they catch up and even overtake some of their comrades. The ripening of the bunches begins from the second half of August (in the south) until the end of September (in the middle zone), where these grapes are one of the last to ripen.
The berries are well preserved on the bushes and are damaged by wasps to a lesser extent than other varieties. Apparently, this is due to the relatively dense skin of the berries.
The frost resistance of the bushes is average - the buds can withstand frosts down to -22°C without shelter. In most Russian regions, this variety requires mandatory shelter for the winter.
Nadezhda Azos shows good resistance to most fungal diseases. To mildew and oidium - good resistance, about 4 points. For gray rot – average, about three points.

are strong, it is best for harvesting .
You can store the bunches in several ways:
- hanging it by the leg on a wire;
- in refrigerators;
- in boxes, laying them out with the legs up in one layer.
At room temperature, fruits can be stored for up to 2 months. They are also easy to transport.
Reviews
“The variety is decent, not capricious, productive, the harvest is of very high quality. Doesn't pea. Disease resistance at the level of Kodryanka.” Svetlana, Novocherkassk
“I consider Nadezhda AZOS one of the strongest varieties. In all my years I have never seen a burst berry. A variety of dark grapes with huge yields, early-medium ripening, large clusters with a large, beautiful berry shape.” Vladimir, Kremenchug
“Nadezhda AZOS is a marketable and quite technologically advanced variety. The only thing is that the taste would be more substantial.” Igor Mukomela, Krasnodar Territory
“Disease resistance, more or less, but this year I suffered from the buffalo leafhopper.” Elena, Sumy region.
“My Nadezhda AZOS pleased me this year - the older the bush, the more beautiful the clusters become; this year the smallest ones weighed 1.2 kg.” Elizaveta Pavlovna
“Nadezhda AZOS” is a grape variety that demonstrates stability and reliability in almost any weather conditions. The bushes do not require labor-intensive and burdensome care, and at the same time they delight gardeners with consistently high yields.
Landing
Selecting a location
- South side from buildings or fence = protection from north winds, a screen for the sun and a natural heat accumulator;
- The location of groundwater is at least 1.5 m from the ground surface;
- The arrangement of rows from north to south will provide optimal illumination of the entire bush;
- Do not plant in the shade of trees or in close proximity. The root of the tree will dominate and take away nutrition.
Do not water the seedling for several days before planting, this will make it easier to remove it from the glass. Trim the roots of the seedling literally a couple of centimeters with a sharp knife or pruning shears - this will stimulate the growth of the root system.
Plant in autumn or spring
There is no particular difference; seedlings with a closed root system (ZRS) are planted in the summer. If spring is chosen, then you should not rush to plant, wait until the soil warms up well and the threat of return frosts has passed. Autumn planting is carried out at least a month before the establishment of negative temperatures.
The optimal place for setting up a vineyard is a southern slope
Landing technology
- We mark the holes taking into account the distance between the bushes and rows of 2.5 m;
- We dig holes measuring 60x60x60 cm.
- We prepare a nutritious soil consisting of: two buckets of rotted manure, earth and sand, a liter jar of ash and a cut glass of Superphosphate. Mix the soil thoroughly.
- Pour about 15 cm of prepared soil into the bottom of the hole, form a mound out of it, place the heel of the seedling on the mound, straighten the roots of the seedling along the slopes, and sprinkle with earth.
- Water with two buckets of water.
- Don't fill the hole to the top! The roots are sprinkled with literally 10-15 centimeters of soil. Our task is to make a deep planting so that the buds are below ground level, so the bush’s sleeves will develop as if from the ground, it will be easier to bend them down for the winter and cover them. In addition, the root of Nadezhda will not withstand frosts below -5°C...-7°C; deep planting will provide a good layer of insulation in the form of soil.
- We shade the planted seedlings, for example, you can use spunbond on the arches. We do not remove the shading for about 2 weeks.
The distance between bushes in a row is 2.5 m, row spacing is also 2.5 m.
Hole dimensions: depth 60 cm, length and width 50 cm.
Composition for filling the hole:
Diseases and pests, control methods and prevention
“Nadezhda AZOS” is resistant to some diseases, but there are misfortunes from which this variety is not immune.
Possible diseases include:
- anthracnose - brown spots on the leaves, the leaves wither and dry out completely. For treatment, treatment with the drugs “Fundazol”, “Skor”, “Previkur”, “Ordan”, Bordeaux mixture 1% is used;
- bacterial cancer - whitish neoplasms that first turn black and then become covered with cracks. As a treatment, you need to cut off the growths and treat the sections with copper sulfate. Such manipulations, however, do not always produce results. If treatment is unsuccessful, the bush must be completely removed from the soil and burned. For 4 years, no plants can be planted in the area where the grapes grow;
- escoriosis - dark spots, often the branch dies due to lesions inside the vine invisible to humans. Affected areas must be removed, and healthy areas must be treated with a fungicide, for example, Ridomil Gold, Skor or Tiovit Jet.
Also, sometimes bushes can be susceptible to attack by pests, including:
- grape mite - a pest invisible to the human eye, manifests itself through the appearance of yellow spots on the leaf blades;
- Scale insects are insects with a thin shell.
To prevent the development of diseases, it is necessary to resort to preventive measures in advance. If infection or insect damage does occur, the pathogen should be immediately identified and proper treatment carried out. Most possible lesions can be successfully cured by treating the plant with various drugs.
To avoid such unpleasant situations, you need to think about prevention in advance.
Important! All medications should be used strictly according to the instructions and not exceed the indicated doses.
Measures to promote grape health include:
- timely pruning;
- regular loosening of the soil in spring and autumn;
- removing leaves under the bush before winter;
- You cannot bend the shoots to the ground;
- winter cover with cellophane instead of substrate;
- preservation of the vine without mechanical damage;
- pruning and other manipulations using pointed and always disinfected pruning shears;
- preventive treatment with “Topsin-M” together with “Epin” from November to April;
- treatment with copper-containing products after removing the winter shelter.
Meet the Three Hopes
Each of the Hopes is special and good in its own way. Two of them are brunettes - AZOS and early - black grapes, Aksai - a bright blonde - white grapes.
Nadezhda AZOS
Nadezhda AZOS, bred at the Anapa zonal experimental station of viticulture and winemaking, is widely known and popular among winegrowers. Only this one out of three passed tests at the Federal State Budgetary Institution “State Varietal Commission” and in 1998 was included in the state register as recommended for cultivation in the North Caucasus. Its originator is the North Caucasus Federal Scientific Center for Horticulture, Viticulture and Winemaking.
Nadezhda AZOS was bred from a parent pair of the Cardinal and Moldova grape varieties, well-known and popular among winegrowers.

It has a table purpose. The grapes grow on strong, tall bushes. This Hope has flowers with functions of both sexes. The bunches ripen in an average period of 120–130 days. They are large and branched. Their average weight is about 0.5 kilograms. The dark, almost black oval grapes are loosely collected and weigh from 6 to 8 grams. They are covered with a thick, crispy skin. Fleshy pulp filled with juice with a simple pleasant taste is sweet and sour - it contains 14% sugar, about 10 g/l acid. She earned a taster rating of 8.2 points. Nadezhda AZOS produces good harvests. From one hectare of vineyard you can get from 80 to 153 centners of fruit. This dose is very little susceptible to powdery mildew (powdery mildew and mildew), and the resistance to gray rot is average.
The best fruiting of Nadezhda AZOS was recorded when it was grown on a vine formed as a single-arm cordon. The vine trunk is formed 110–120 centimeters high, and the shoots are left hanging freely.
It is recommended to load the bush with 25–30 shoots, which are cut short in the fall, leaving 2–4 eyes.
Nadezhda AZOS is not very adapted to withstand winter cold. Temperatures below -22 ºС are destructive for it. In areas with harsh winters, it must be carefully covered.

Reviews about the Nadezhda AZOS variety
I got Nadezhda AZOS a very long time ago, when it was not just a shortage, but few people knew that it existed... The manager gave it to me.
Anapsky GSU Brodenko Anatoly Afanasyevich. My Rusbol was growing by that time, and after seeing the harvest and berries for 2 years, I decided to regraft it with Nadezhda AZOS. On Rusbol it turned out completely different, the berry is very large (if on a drop with feeding it is not inferior to the Monarch), the clusters are large up to 3200 g, the harvest reaches up to 45 kg per bush (planting pattern 2.5 m by 2.5 m, single-row trellis), True, the ripening period increases, depending on watering. It also happened on September 20th. Yuri45

I am a beginner winegrower.
This year I received the first bunches of Azos. They colored early and became tasty only in September. Everyone liked the pulp and taste. Stored well. In the spring, I cut a cutting into two buds and stuck it in the ground between two bushes - it took root (under the eggplant) and is growing. What else do you need, an awesome variety. At the end of August I went to one of the grape varieties to try. Of the many vaunted varieties, there is no taste, or the wasps are striking (blagovest). So for now I will consider Azos one of my main varieties. S_ivanickiy

The resulting grapes are table grapes, tasty, and when fully ripened in 110–115 days, exhibit a light muscatel quality. Bushes whose flowers are bisexual give their strength not so much to the growth of shoots as to the cultivation of loose clusters. They ripen large and even very weighty - 700–1200 grams, or even 2 kilograms. They can remain on the bush for a long time, only becoming sweeter.
Oblong yellow-green grapes, their components are not small - 8–12 grams each. The skin of the berries, although dense, is not noticeable in food. The sour-sweet taste of the Nadezhda Aksayskaya grape variety is determined by 16–18% of the sugar accumulated by the berries and 6–7 grams of acid per liter of juice.
The originator tested his variety for ten years on one hundred bushes. He harvested up to 40 kilograms of harvest from an adult vine. This result can be obtained by normalizing the number of shoots on a bush, inflorescences and clusters on each of them. Then the yields will be stable.
With annual autumn pruning, 2–4 eyes are left on the shoots, and up to 35 eyes in total on the bush.
The shoots of Nadezhda Aksai ripen well, but the vines can withstand the winter cold only down to -23–24 ºС. It is recommended to protect this variety from frost if temperatures below -16 ºС are likely in the area where it is grown.
The variety is only relatively resistant to both types of powdery mildew and gray mold, so one or two preventive treatments are recommended throughout the season, especially if the year is rainy.

Reviews from winegrowers about the Nadezhda Aksayskaya variety
Nadezhda Aksai has a light nutmeg taste and at the first fruiting there were 4 clusters on the bush and they looked like the end of July.
Personally, based on the first indicators, my opinion is worth changing. The vine of this form has fully matured. and ARKADIA (Nastya) has half.) Let's see what happens next if you believe KAPELYUSHNY VASILY ULYANOVICH, he has had this form for 10 years and has planted up to 150 bushes. Is it possible to instill bad things? PETER

These grapes have a very early ripening period of 95–100 days and were bred not so long ago by the Dnieper amateur breeder Anatoly Golub. He already has several dozen varieties of grapes in his arsenal.
Anatoly Alekseevich received Nadezhda early from a wonderful pair of varieties ZOS-1, which is also called ZOSEY or Red Delight, and Nadezhda AZOS
I have been growing grapes for more than 20 years.
I started breeding 7 years ago. I set a goal to select from new hybrid forms varieties that are not damaged by wasps and are resistant to cracking when the soil is waterlogged, G.F. with very large berries and good harmonious taste. In the process of seven years of work, only a few hybrid forms were selected from a large number of seedlings that met my requirements. The seedlings were grown in spartan conditions, in open ground. No growth stimulants were used. No agrotechnical measures were carried out. I am pleased with the results I have received over the years! All berry sizes are real and in a high agricultural background the berries and clusters will be even larger. A.A.

Their brainchild, Nadezhda Early, turned out to be so productive that the load of the bush in clusters must be normalized. In addition, she is practically not afraid of wasps and powdery mildew. Its resistance to phylloxera is somewhat lower. Early Nadezhda is not very resistant to cold weather, only -23–24 ºС, so it can only be grown in areas with freezing winters using a covered method.
Grapes respond well to timely watering and fertilizing, but prefer fertilizers with a low nitrogen content.
Early Nadezhda is a hybrid form of grape with dark colored berries. Its medium-sized bushes have bisexual flowers, so there are no complications with pollination. Winged large clusters of Nadezhda reach a kilogram and even more weight. Oval dark blue elongated berries, covered with purine, are arranged freely. They can weigh up to 14 grams. Grapes filled with juice are covered with a moderately thick, dense skin, which is eaten when eaten. The taste of the berries is pleasant with fruity nuances. The grapes do not crack, are not damaged by wasps, and thanks to their thick skin, they can remain on the vine for a long time, gaining additional sugar. The harvested crop is well stored, does not spoil, and is easily transported.
Nadezhda early is resistant to common ailments of grapes, as well as to most pests.
