Spring is on the way!

Spring is on the way in the vineyard! Snowdrops are in full flower, Daffodils are just beginning and nightfall is noticeable later. Now is the start of a very busy but exciting time for us at Wye Chase Vineyard. At the end of March, we have 700 Pinot Noir vines being delivered for planting. We have therefore marked out the spacing between the vines (1.2m) within each row and between the rows (1.8m). The next stage is to dig the 700 holes ready for planting to begin at Easter. It would be nice to do this in the dry but its nice to be outside no matter what!
