Starts end of May and carries on until the end of August.

The vines are cut back to approx 15-20 spurs with 2 buds/spur.  It is a very important process to keeping crop yields at a consistant level.

The grapes are havested over a 4-6 week period.  But this can change very quickly depending on what the weather has to offer.
