It's a good job my livelihood isn't dependent on me predicting things correctly. Four or five days until budbreak, indeed! Today I noticed that the Cabernet Sauvignon vines are experiencing budbreak - albeit sporadic - but budbreak it is. Infact, there are quite a few adventitious buds that have developed on the vine's trunks that have already unfurled into rosy-pink, baby leaves. Go little buddies!

Hope your cab gets to its destination on time and safely.
yes go bud buddies. How is this heat then torrential rain affecting things?
Tomasso: Hope I tipped Mother Nature enough last year because she's still at the steering wheel :)
ALW: Rain bothers me, not the vines, because I am the one who is now fretting about high powdery mildew pressure when it finally stops. Generally, vines are OK with heat.
