Everything is growing

Rondo grapes swelling

We've had a more normal pattern of weather the last week with showers and sunshine alternating. It's gotten a bit warmer as well. All of this bodes well for the developing grapes. We've now had 77.9 mm of rain in July and the mean temp was 14.8C, on par with last year. 

The Solaris are visibly larger but not as large as the Rondo. It helps that we've pruned the entire vineyard. Pruning helps with yield. 

Very encouraging is the state of the Pinot Noir grapevines and grapes. We may have our first yield this year.
