The Habits of Climbing Plants.

Looking for all the world like deranged 30 amp fuse wire, multiple years of Cabernet sauvignon tendrils have combined to thoroughly ensnare, with a death-like grip, the trellising wires in Vinoland.
Today I began pruning the Cabernet sauvignon vines, and once again I had forgotten how hard the wood is to cut through in comparison with the other grape varieties in Vinoland. Ouch! Not only did my pruning shears get a good workout, but so did my loppers and even my pruning saw. Thanks for help with that last cut Vinomaker!
