With the vineyard being sprayed for the final time last Thursday, requiring a 48 hour no re-entry time (or re-entry interval, REI), and being distracted by four little feathery chickies, I hadn't noticed the onset of veraison in the Cabernet sauvignon vines. Well, here we have it. Whether I am paying attention or not, the grapevines will carry on doing their thing. Thank goodness.

Soon you'll be able to pick and eat a few off the vines, popping
them in just for the love it.
I had been doing that with an abundant summer crop of bilberries; a special delight in this 90 degree halcyon July, as I did my Lake Massabesic walk-abouts.
Another lovely photo, V-girl.
NHW: Yes, although some other denizens of Vinoland may beat me to it.
Never had a bilberry, but my blackberries are nearly ripe. Love foraging.
