After all the flurry of activity with planting, things have slowed down. We finished putting on grow tubes, wires and irrigation by Monday afternoon, then watched the storms come in over the next few days. It has either been cold, windy or rainy, (or all three) ever since. Fortunately the grapevines remain dormant, so the freeze we expect tonight shouldn't be a big problem. But we are ready for budbreak! And decent weather!
We have been able to spend some time working on preparing equipment for bottling. Our directions were in English, rather than the Italian we have come to expect, but it still took some work to get things figured out. I think we are one step closer to being ready to bottle.
