A Perfect Summer!
The summer was amazing. The hottest summer since 1976. The vines caught up from their frosting and the grapes were amazing. The flowers set and the crop was looking really good!!

The biggest problem we have at Four Acres is the late Spring frost. On the 30th the new shoots on the vines were burnt. We really thought the season would be a disaster!
The harvest is all done and in the tanks. Many thanks to the 120 people who volunteered to help us bring in the Harvest. We harvested 2.3 tons of grapes! When taking into account how difficult the season was, it was a good result. It’s all in the tanks now maturing.
