Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc at Véraison

We feel as if our grapes are one week ahead of what they were last year with respect to their ripening trajectory. Last week, while we were working in our Chardonnay, we noticed that the red varieties were at véraison.

The Cabernet Sauvignon appears to be further along than the Cabernet Franc. Although we had problems earlier with the Heat Wave and Our Cabernet Sauvignon, we have portions of our fruit that are looking really good.
