Green Harvest

It is particularly difficult this year. There are too many clusters hanging
on some of our vines - these will be thinned out.

Many vines, though, are growing too few clusters because of the late frost
we suffered.
It's unfortunate that we can't transplant the surplus clusters from the
bountiful vines to the damaged vines.

The harvest this year will be appreciably reduced in volume.

On the Katerstein

We are letting the leaf canopy in the vineyard Ried Katerstein spread out at
the moment, in order to provide the clusters with shade in the midday sun.

Today on the Leitha Range we are expecting temperatures of up to 35°C in the
shade.
