A few grapes 🍇 alas small ones from the #grapevines this year. Not truly ripe though. They are #ConcordGrapes but they don’t seem to ripen properly here or they get eaten by squirrels (or me 😂 ) too soon. Not sure. But yesterday there were two dark ones and those tasted just like Concord #grapes 😋 . So I know it’s possible 😊
☀️ & 31°c (88°F) so back to gardening before it gets too hot.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

#trees and #grapevines but the #old #cow #barn still stands.

Also, I dunno if my #grapevines just went dormant with little fanfare or if they've expired, so I'm still hoping for some nice labrusca-style table grapes. I'll order from Koanga, probably. https://koanga.org.nz/gardens/forest-garden/isabella-grape-og/
Winter in #California #wine country is such a different color palette from the summer of deep greens and golds The hillsides are brilliantly yellow-green, the vines dark brown, and the sky an indescribable blue. My favorite season here.

@Island_Martha It was a foggy January day, and I think we'd spent part of the morning learning how to #prune #grapevines. So this room seemed nice and warm. And the #winemaker was fun.

Looked up techniques to stimulate #budbreak in #grapevines. Apparently garlic extract applied on the freshly pruned tips can help. Grated and strained a few cloves to try this. 🧄🍇
Hmm, the #grapevines cuttings are taking their sweet time with #budbreak. Only one has a fully green bud going to leaf, the rest are still wee "cotton buds".

Yesterday I was layering some vines. It’s probably the cheapest and fastest way to produce a replacement or to fill a gap. The buds along the cane will produce roots during the winter. Once the new vine us self sufficient it can be removed from the parent vine. #grapevines #englishwine #propogation

Hello world! I'm a viticulturist working in the Montpellier area, partner and viticulturist for the Terre des 2 Sources winery in Montoulieu, Hérault, France.
I love #grapevines and #wine, and try to make useful observations about #viticulture, but also wine, #winemaking, #science, #research, #technology, #ClimateChange and related topics... Plus whatever else tickles my fancy... :-)
