A glimpse into Washington State Vineyards as flowers become berries and berries become wine.
This Chardonnay cluster is almost in full bloom. Washington hit bloom in record time this year. With record heat units and ideal weather, fruit set happened without a hitch.
Fast forward a few weeks and those flowers have set into berries.
And now, we begin the mad dash toward harvest with verasion appearing on theWahluke Slope in both red and white varieties. Check out those purple berries! 
Now taking bets on the likely hood of harvest beginning before Labor Day here in Washington
