We spent the first part of July cleaning out weeds from the vineyard, I can really get obsessed with this duty. We just finished three days of leaf removal and thinning, the result of heavy growth on the last few vines in every rows. Today I mowed for the last time this year in preparation for netting.
The weather has been nice, but windy - in the 80's and a little humid (for the California coast). This past weekend we poured at the Central Coast Wine Classic - always a good time. And the 27th of the month we pour at A Taste of Camarillo.
The vineyard is looking good but one section has suffered from shattered clusters. maybe the result will be a light harvest. This was likely the result of several days of frost during spring bloom. Fingers are crossed that the weather holds out and we enjoy another great harvest.
