Currently, most of the vines grown in the province have reached or are approaching complete veraison. At this phenological stage, the berries turn from green to yellow, pink, or red depending on the variety, start the development of flavors and aromas, and accumulate sugar for the winemaking process.
One of the biggest considerations at this time
of the year is the protection of the fruit zone from birds, raccoons and deer. One
of the most common ways to protect the bunches is the use of nets, which cover
the fruit zone from the top of the bunches to below the first wire. In some
cases, nets can be used to completely cover 2 full rows at a time. Regardless
of the strategy selected, it is important to ensure proper coverage of the
area, fastening the edges with staples/clips/pegs, to prevent birds or racoons from
entering.
