Italian term

fascia grappoli

Italian to English Other Wine / Oenology / Viticulture viticulture
I am translating the contents of a website of a wine-related startup and came across this sentence:

"abbiamo condotto uno studio relativo a tecniche di miglioramento delle condizioni microclimatiche all’interno della fascia grappoli del vigneto"

I would appreciate your help with the expression "fascia grappoli". Thank you.

I agree with Charlotte, see my last note.
Charlotte Fleming Jan 19, 2019:
I meant “canopy”, not “curtain” :( but yes, that’s my take on it.
philgoddard Jan 19, 2019:
You say "curtain" - is that the answer?
Charlotte Fleming Jan 19, 2019:
I think it means the band/area of the vines where the grapes grow; they're looking at microclimatic variations within the vine curtain, the area where the grape bunches and leaves are found.
philgoddard Jan 19, 2019:
I think it may mean the parts of the vineyard where the clusters of grapes are, in other words, a maximum and minimum height above the ground. I don't know if there's a concise English equivalent, and the Italian gets very few relevant hits.

But in the sense of the question, that I didn’t notice, I agree with you: area of the vines where the grapes grow:

disagree Charlotte Fleming : “Grappoli” are clusters; the “fascia” refers to something other than the clusters themselves
