Today we were up and pruning cherry tree's at sunrise. Sure enough one hour goes by and the snow starts falling. Two of my guy's made a run for it and the old timer Juan stayed to talk about pruning tree's before I was even born. Instead of standing there talking about working I took him down to our vines and put himi to work pruning our riesling we made quick for of the section I wanted done and they look great. This small string of maybe 30 vines are 35-40 year old vines. They are ungrafted vitis-vinifera with good healthy large trunks on them. We use this various small groups for personal wine experiments and for propagation of future vines for our larger vineyard. I look forward to what ever this year gives us.
