Vitis Cognitae

Question from Brian Dryburgh

Have just noticed brown raised 'nodules' on some of this year's leaves on my Vitis Cognitae - see attached photo. (This young leaf measures about 8cm across.) The plant is well established and is about 4 years years old. Have checked the Shoot website for specific pests and diseases for this plant, but none of them appears to fit the bill. Grateful for any ideas. Regards, Brian.
