near the Kerala border,best known for the Panneer grapes which is fragrant,
soft and juicy, and fruits almost year-round.
Growers can get three crops a year,

Most of the crop is sold as fresh fruit,
and some goes into juice, raisins and wine.
Kerala buyers in particular buy it in large quantities for home-made wine.
The area is known for its cool,
high-altitude climate and fertile soil.

Most local farms offer free entry to walk through the vines, though plucking grapes directly from the plants is usually restricted.
