Spring is in full bloom at our Wild Oak Estate Vineyard with the start of bud break. This is an exciting time in the Sonoma Valley as vines awake from their winter dormancy and begin to sprout new growth. Bud Break marks a significant milestone in the vineyard’s cycle, symbolizing the awakening of nature and the beginning of a new growing season. It’s a time of anticipation and promise, as the delicate buds burst with fresh vitality, signaling the start of vine growth. This period not only initiates the journey towards the next harvest but also sets the stage for the year’s grape development. Bud Break signals the beginning of meticulous vineyard management practices and the nurturing of the vines to ensure optimal fruit quality. It’s a time when vineyard teams meticulously tend to each vine, fostering healthy growth and laying the foundation for a successful vintage. Cheers to the 2024 growing season!
