Wines this week are a mixed bag

In my garden at the moment my plum and two apple trees are in full bloom and I am already anxiously anticipating a good crop of fruit.

Of course anything could happen between now and the Autumn, but I’m hoping I’ll beat the miserly 12 plums and 14 apples I harvested last year.

In the wine world the same thoughts are going through winegrowers minds in the Northern Hemisphere (the Southern Hemisphere Harvest is all in by now with the odd exception).
