Growing and Harvesting
During winter the vines are pruned and the old branches are
removed

With the coming of spring new growth occurs
,
this has to be 'tucked into the wire supports
.
The growth is further controlled by trimming
.
Pests and fungal attacks are controlled by spraying
.
When the grapes are ready for picking
a team of pickers are recruited, the grapes are picked into boxes
which are transported
to the winery for processing.
