Guns of Barbaresco
Jul/15/09 vineyard
Even though it has been sunny every day for 2 months we do get a
few small and short storms rolling in. That's when the Guns of Barbaresco

hail or at least making it smaller they sound like a civil war canon
Hazel nut harvest is coming soon usually beginning in mid August
and ending just in time to start harvesting grapes

spraying for Oidium (Powdery mildew)
