Budburst to Harvest Print E-mail

From September on, the vines are on the move. Our time is taken up with the prevention of Downey and Powdery mildew, and general vineyard maintenance. Any grafting usually occurs in November when the bark begins to slip. This enables us to keep our old vine stocks and have the varieties we want.

Grafting over to Grenache.

New life.

Spraying copper and sulfur for mildew prevention.
