Vintage 2021: Budbreak in the Vineyard

We have been pruning our vines and laying down the canes every chance we have in order to beat budbreak. On my April 21 blogpost I wrote about Vintage 2021: April Update and in it provided photos of the various varieties that we have in the vineyard. They were very much at the dormant bud stage. Now, thirteen days later, here is what they look like:

The Chardonnay and the Barbera are at the bud opening stage and all but the Cabernet Sauvignon are at the green tip stage. The Cabernet Sauvignon is late to bud break and is currently at the wooly bud stage.
Given that the vines are beginning to wake up, we were so happy that we laid down the last pruned cane this afternoon! Oh, what a relief it is!
