Ramsey is well suited to coarse-textured soils of low fertility. It has yielded well with a wide range of scions. It is well siuted for Sultana in sandy soils in the murray River irrigation districts. Caution is required where it may produce excess vigour and where excess potassium uptake may increase juice pH. Unless managed particularly well, it can reduce red wine colour and quality. Moderately tolerant of soil salinity. Susceptible to zinc deficiency. Some incompatibilities have been redorded.
