The hot spell in late June did cause some damage by disrupting some bloom. A majority of the damage was located on the west side of the vine where the afternoon sun was the hottest. Young vines and canopies that are still developing showed the most loss. Overall, Matt Cline is satisfied with the vines and they way the fruit looks. Stay tuned for Cline Cellars' continuous coverage of Harvest 2000, keeping you updated on the latest harvest events.
