The yield signifies the amount of grapes or wine produced from a specific vineyard area, commonly measured in tons per acre in the US, or hectoliters per hectare in Europe. Lower yields are associated with better quality, as the vine focuses its energy and nutrients into fewer grapes, thus giving concentrated and more intense flavor profiles, Higher yields on the other hand, produce lighter and less concentrated wines. Vine age, grape variety, soil type and vineyard management all influence the yield.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"template":"","glossary_category":[113],"class_list":["post-14117","wcp_glossary","type-wcp_glossary","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\nWhat is a Yield?
