Harvest 2012

Despite a poor summer for flowering and sunshine, we managed to take our first (smaller than expected) harvest in late October.  3.8 tonnes of healthy grapes were picked over four mornings by our band of happy pickers.  Well done guys!  All this year's harvest is destined for sparkling wine (white and rose).
Lovely clean grapes
