This is me celebrating the growth of our new vineyard on Black Canyon Rd., Ramona. I’m holding up a Primitivo grape which will be in the bottle and available for drinking in the year 2012-2013.  Wine making and grape growing requires much patience!  Notice the before and after pictures of this vineyard planted just 20 days ago. See the green foliage peeking out and latching on to the bamboo stakes climbing to the second line of wire where they will eventually seperate, each cordon (left and right) will grow about 4 ft long.
