TUMPAT (Bernama): The belief that a cold climate is best suited for growing grapes has been disproven by Wan Yusoff Abdul Rahman, 37, who has been cultivating the fruit in tropical Malaysia for two years.

The former graphic artist said he had 60 grapevines planted around his house in Kampung Belukar, Wakaf Bharu, that could yield up to 100kg of fruit per month.
