This time of year it is hard not to contemplate the cyclical nature of the growing season. In the vineyard the fruit for the 2008 harvest has already set on the vines; and within the past few months the vine's vigorous growth has changed the face of the winery, displaying all of the potential of another year's harvest.
As we hit the midpoint of summer everything in the vineyard looks wonderful. Assuming these hot stretches don't stretch through the entire summer we should be in line for a great vintage.
