I was kept busy all day today pulling leaves in the Pinot grigio vines in preparation for the installation of bird-netting. About mid-afternoon, feeling a bit peckish, I took a break and wandered over to the bramble patch to have a quick snack of sun-warmed blackberries. Lo and behold, I discovered that the Cabernet Sauvignon vines had started to go through veraison. In fact, some of the clusters are far more purple and advanced than the one I photographed. Go grapies!
And please ignore the cleistothecia in the photo, I am. (Until next spring, that is.)

VG: Cool grape pictures, but I was wondering how much cleistothecia before alarms go off?
NHW: The bells are already ringing! In a perfect world Vinoland's grapies would be blemish free :)
