Vintage 2021: Vineyard is at Berry Formation
Yesterday, we snuck in a bit of work at the vineyard before the rains came around 3:30 p.m. At the end of the morning work period, I had a chance to take a few photos of the various varieties that we are growing and where they are with respect to berry formation.
These photos show that the Chardonnay, which bloomed first is farther along than the other varieties. The Cabernet Sauvignon which was last to flower and set fruit is still showing vestiges of the flower parts. We are in for some rain this July 4th weekend which should help further berry growth.
