The real reason we went to the farm this is all Shiraz grapes we plan to get our grapes from here. You can see the two rows that we pruned to get more grapes from the old vines. This shot is just a very small fraction of the whole winery. The property is owned by people who do not know or care about the vines or wine. we started pruning 7am finished at 4 pm when our hands gave out.

A good job well done Steve secateurs with a rotating handle are suppose to help prevent wrist strain I don't know if they do

have to look out for those my hand next day fingers and tendons you knew where they all where , we know grape production will increase by getting rid of all the older dead wood and only keeping the live wood.

What a pity the current owners don't care about the vines - OTOH, that certainly is good for you (apart from the aches). Happy vingtnering, Steve.

We wait to see if the vines respond but in the the end I believe we will be the winners.

Thanks Peter those vines have cause such a stir with the group ( different ideas on how to get the result) I am in the middle familiar with plants but no experience with grapes. I wait and see.
