Veraison underway!



Lo and behold, veraison, the changing of berry colour, is underway. The Ronda grapes are looking fine. Bigger than last year already and already turning a lovely red.

The Solaris are once again disappointing. Some have formed grapes, others withered into tiny black balls. Alex thinks they were not pollinated and wants to move a hive into the vineyard. But as grapes are self-pollinating, will that help. 

Anyway, it's looking promising, or more like hopeful. Just this drasted drought getting in the way.
