SWGG Almanac – Spring
New Growth, new possibilities
Bud break, frost risk, and early cellar work set the stage for a successful season.
Spring brings rapid growth and renewed activity in both the vineyard and winery, making it one of the most important—and vulnerable—times of the year. Careful vineyard monitoring, frost protection, and timely cellar management help set the foundation for quality and consistency throughout the season.
