Flowering started a week late at the end of May and beginning of June. It was fast, uniform and took place at the same time for all varieties. With the new moon on Tuesday 3 June, we were expecting the fine weather to settle in and the return of the anticyclone was announced, but it is dragging its feet and the storms and showers are still prevalent!
Despite this, flowering of the vines continues and we will have a better idea, two to three weeks from now, of the potential harvest this vintage will have, depending on how well the flowers are fertilised.
