https://udaan.org/s43jgc7.php From Wikipedia: Véraison is a viticulture (grape-growing) term meaning “the onset of ripening”. It is originally French, but has been adopted into English use. The official definition of veraison is “change of color of the grape berries.” Veraison represents the transition from berry growth to berry ripening, and many changes in berry development occur at veraison.

Great pic. Does seem early for veraison – most other wineries here in Virginia are also seeing what appears to be early veraison (if there is such a thing). Not sure if this is because of the hotter than normal 2010 growing, or indicative of a larger climate change reason. Afton Mountains has already harvested two of their vineyards so far (see yesterday’s post). Interesting year.
