Well it's finally here, the first buds have shown their stuff in the Toucan Wines Vineyard. It's always the Petite Sirah that pops out first then the youngest vines (replacement vines for those we loss to a hard-freeze and gophers). The weather has been nice, warm, and dry - we've been hoping for more rain but it just doesn't seem to be materializing this year.
Now that the first leaves have popped out, the growth will be fast, soon we'll be suckering the unwanted growth, trapping gophers, mowing the grass in the rows, and spraying to detour any mildew spoors.
Just a reminder - Saturday afternoon 1-5 pm I pour a couple of our current releases at Lund's located in the village of Arroyo Grande. Please stop in and say hello and taste our new wines. Also, to locate our restaurants and retail shops selling Toucan Wines - visit our retail page.
