N.  aViticultural performance of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon (Vitis vinifera L.) cultivated in high altitude regions of Southern Brazilh[electronic resource]  c2014  aDifferent studies show that the altitude regions of the State of Santa Catarina have great potential for the production of grapes grape varieties. The aim of this study was to characterize the phenological development, determine the thermal requirements in degree-days (DD), the index heliothermic (IH) and climatic variables during the vegetative and productive development of varieties Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon grown in Campo Belo South and S??o Joaquim, altitude regions of the State of Santa Catarina, in southern Brazil, during 2012/2013 cycle. The stages were evaluated budding, flowering, color change and maturation of the berries. The results indicate that the two studied sites present climatic conditions favorable to the development of Vitis vinifera varieties studied viticulture activity of ensuring a good quality.  adegree-days  aheliothermic index  aphenology1 aSIMON, S.1 aBRIGHENTI, A.
