Harvest 2006 Is About to Begin
The harvest is upon us, and while it is too soon to say what the wine will be like, the fruit itself this year is picture perfect. The weather has conspired to bring all of our fruit to ripeness at nearly the same instant, and there is very little damage from pests like birds, yellowjackets, fungus, elk, space visitors, cougar, or any of the other normal suspects. Picking begins tomorrow!
In honor of the beautiful fruit of the 2006 vintage, here’s a game to play: Name the Clone. Can you match the photo to the clone? Mouse over the photo to see the name of the clone, and click on it if you care to make a more detailed examination.
