Spring is on its way...budbreak!

In late April and early May tiny buds on the vine start to swell and green leaves start to appear. Appearance of the first green leaves through the bud scales is called budbreak. The first shoots start to grow powered by the energy derived from carbohydrates that were stored in permanent vine structures (roots, trunks and cordons) during dormancy.

Budbreak signifies the start of a new vintage and all the hopes and hard worth that come with it!
