White Hawk Visit

My daughter Kate joined me for a quick visit to White Hawk vineyard this past weekend to check in on our Syrah. The crews just finished removing laterals and it looked like some leaves had been pulled as well. Kevin Merrill the vineyard manager said they were planing on hedging this week. As we've heard from other growers Kevin says it's going to be a light crop "but should make great wine".   

The sandy soil at White Hawk is amazing. It reminds me more of Lanikai beach than a vineyard.
