The cordon, or "arms", of the grapevine extend from the trunk and are the part where additional arms and eventually leaves and grape cluster cordons are usually found along wires as part of a trellis system. This training usually fixes the cordon into a permanent position, such as horizontal extending from the trunk in opposite directions. [6]
