Ahead of Storm Ashley, due in on Sunday with strong winds, heavy rain and fueling astronomical tides, I checked the status of the Pinot Noir grapes. Every vine has multiple bunches but they are nowhere near harvestable. Just hard green nodules. It was a bad year pretty much everywhere, including France, England, Ireland and California. So we'll hang in there hoping that a different year produces different results.
Meanwhile, the tides were even higher today than yesterday and the stormy weather delivered buckets of rain in Castlebar this morning. Zero visibility. Heavy downfall. And that's before Ashley makes its appearance.
