Pruning the Vines.

The first major undertaking on the winegrower's calendar is pruning the
vines.

The system we are using here for our Sauvignon Blanc is cordon-training,
with the canes cut past the second bud.
This leaves plenty of old wood remaining, which acts as a repository for
nutrients in reserve.

The canes with their two buds will produce this year's summer shoots and
their clusters of grapes
