Vines with a semi-upright (growth/growing) habit

The "porte" here refers to the growing habit, i.e., whether the plants are upright, trailing, etc. Sometimes just "habit" is used.

GROWING HABIT
A direction or shape a plant takes as it grows.

Vines with a procumbent (trailing) growth habit will be trained to the top wire, while those with a ***semi-upright to upright growth habit*** (Chambourcin, La Crosse, Seyval, Traminettee, Vignole) will be trained to the mid-level wire with catch wires added above.

European (Vitis vinifera) cultivars have an ***upright habit***. They need a system that can accommodate this along with their lack of winter hardiness. One that both allows easy removal and replacement of trunks in case of winter injury and provides room for vertical training of shoots.
