I've been walking the vineyard daily, sometimes twice daily, on the lookout for bud burst among the Albarino vines, the last holdouts. Given that the Rondo burst on the 5th of April, and the Chardonnay 5 days ago, I was getting a bit anxious. Now, the buds are quite small and not all the vines made it through their first year, but there's plenty to be hopeful about. Multiple buds on multiple vines all showed signs of waking up. I am jazzed.

And, of course, I had an escort or two.
And just for good measure, here are some bees.
