ITS HERE! ITS HERE!
We have reached my second favorite time of the year in the vineyards! The intoxicating aroma, the tiny calyptra (Flower petals below, they are five fused petals which detach from the flower, curl a tad and fall off), the long days in the warm sun.

| The very beginning of bloom! The caps are so swollen! |
Grapes are self pollinated so Bees are mostly seen in the inter row feeding on Yellow Mustard or Meadow Salsify.
I enjoy the beauty in every stage of the vineyard, but this is very amazing. I suggest visiting vineyards in many stages, yes when the grapes are ripe for the tasting, one loves to visit the vineyard. But there is beauty out there all year round!
