2003

Following fairly good spring weather for budburst and flowering, summer came on hot and fast. The hot and dry weather caused some concern that the fruit would sweeten rapidly and result in a significantly early harvest. Harvesting of Shiraz occurred from late March through April. Sugar levels were generally high for most varieties, pH and acidity levels were excellent.
