The disease cycle begins with the overwintering structures. The grape black rot pathogen overwinters in many parts of the grape vine, especially mummies and lesions, and is able to overwinter on the vineyard floor. [3] In fact, "Viable lesions capable of producing conidia can persist in wood for at least 2 years."

In the eastern vineyards this disease is estimated to infect 30% of grapes while in California it can infect up to half. [83] This can reduce yields by 40–60%.
