Thought it would be good to do a weekly photo of 1 vine every week so you can see how the vintage progressed. Even though you may not see much this week, they will take off very shortly. These vines are just showing around 2 leaves (you need to look pretty hard)

What a way to finish #greateasternwineweek; our first frost of the season. At 11:30pm the frost sensors told us it was 0.1 degrees. So all of the Cranbrook vineyards @galaestate @miltonvineyard @springvalewines and us were up starting the sprinklers to save the precious buds from freezing. Such is life as a wine farmer. Probably another frost event tonight☹️

After 572854 cuts, 549 hours & 51 minutes (~68 days) 25 kilometres of walking and 21500 vines, we have finally finished pruning 🥳
And those stats record only the electric @felco_official secateurs. 2 other people using manual secateurs still walking the same distance. Now we wait for bud burst in September. Well there is still plenty to do!

Why do wine glasses in different shapes change the taste of wine?
As part of the #greateasternwineweek come and join us for a wine tasting with a difference.
The experts @plummwineglasses will take us through their range of glasses, designed for each varietal of wine.
A fun and informative session looking at how different glasses interact with wine. Try some of our new release wines before they are available for public sale.
Friday 3rd September 2021, 3 sessions available. $30 per person, wine tasting light nibbles included. A great chance to buy beautiful glasses at a discounted price too!
