We finished up our pruning today at noon. As you can see in the picture the vines are still completely dormant. What a change from last year when our vines were completely full of leaves and we spent the next month worrying about frost and freeze warnings. This year we are waiting for the sunshine and warm temperatures so that we can begin tying down and training vines. What a difference a year makes!
The picture shows our contribution to the Easter bunny to help him with this coming Saturday's Easter egg hunt. If you haven't heard it through the grapevine, there is going to be an adult Easter egg hunt this Saturday, March 30th in the vineyard. With sunshine and the first warm weather in the forecast for this weekend it would be a great time to pour a glass of wine and stroll through our vines to inspect our work. Everyone should be lucky enough to find an egg and redeem it at our tasting room for prizes like t-shirts, hats, free tastings, discounts and glasses. When you return, we would love to sit in the sunshine and talk about the weather and wine (two topics that never grow old) but I will warn you that we try not to talk about politics or work.
