#Cabernet is the most popular red #wine in the #US Can it endure #climatechange?
Rising temperatures are threatening the future of #NapaValley's prized #cabernetsauvignon, forcing #winemakers to adapt to increasingly severe #heatwaves. Some vineyards are experimenting with heat-tolerant #grape varieties to blend with cabernet, while others are investing in cooling technologies.npr.org/2024/09/09/nx-s1-50020

🍇 Here is our Valiant #grape harvest for the first year. Small but very tasty! It is pretty exciting to grow grapes north of 53 degrees latitude. ☺️ Fingers crossed this northern variety makes it through our winter and returns next spring.

Gracias a @doclomieu he podido probar la tinta Diamine "Grape". Es un morado oscuro, que conserva su color en la escritura hecha con una pluma Jinhao 992 F, pero que oscurece bastante con el riego abundante de una pluma de vidrio recién sumergida en la muestra.
El resultado final es muy agradable: un color saturado pero oscuro, alque calificaría de "serio" y "elegante".

I had four wires, on black locust posts making a large rectangle. I wanted more architecture for the Scuppernong #grape to hang on, so I used the vine prunings from last year, the same grape, to weave a horizontal vine web overhead.
Grow more #shade. You're going to need it.
BTW, the Scuppernong is NOT supposed to grow in my Zone 6a, #Michigan, but I lay its main trunks down on the wood chip mulch & let it get buried under snow. 7 winters & counting. The ground hasn't frozen in several winters now. It's flowered but not fruited yet. Could be a good year.🤞

Report: Global #wine production worst in 62 years due to 'extreme #climate events'

The 10% decrease is the world's steepest drop in wine production in 62 years, according to the industry report. The #grape harvest was the worst reported since 1961.

"#Fires, #droughts and other conditions commonly associated with a changing global climate greatly contributed to making the world's 2023 wine production the worst in 62 years, industry officials have reported.

"A 'State of the World Vine and Wine Sector in 2023' report released Thursday by the France-based International Organization of Vine and Wine cites 'extreme environmental conditions' as a primary cause of a 10% drop in global wine production in 2023.

"John Barker, director of the wine organization, said 'drought, #ExtremeHeat and fires, as well as #HeavyRain causing #flooding and #fungal disease across major northern and southern hemisphere wine production regions" were primary factors in the decrease in global wine production.

"The 10% decrease is the world's steepest drop in wine production in 62 years, according to the industry report. The grape harvest was the worst reported since 1961.

"A 26% drop in wine production in #Australia and a 23% drop in #Italy made those nations the worst in 2023. #Spain lost more than 20% of its wine production, and #Chile and #SouthAfrica each recorded 10% drops."
