Veraison

The few showers in recent days have been favorable to the vine and  veraison*.

We will try to follow the same clusters of each grape variety week by week to assess developments.

Pinot Noir - Janvry



 

Pinot Meunier - Janvry



* Véraison: color change of the berry. The black grape berries go from green to red and white grape berries turn from green to yellow. This color change is accompanied by a sugar arrival in bays. Ripening lasts 10 to 15 days, and precedes the grape maturation phase.

In recent days, some small berries were visible but now need to look for more! Veraison has actually begun! See you in about 45 days for the first shots shears!
