BETWEEN THE VINES
Nov 2009 Edition No 54

HARVEST REPORT FOR 2008
Most vineyards in England have had a VERY GOOD harvest at similar to the
 crop of 2007. The very early warm spring started
the vines growing far to soon. May's hot days and warm nights did
the vines a lot of good and the flowers developed really well. The
quality of the grapes was good, with some extra high
sugar readings.
Unlike the rest of the country, the harvest at New Hall was very good
 and has produced between 230 and 240 bottles per row, (One of
the benefits of having a good site). The 2008 wines should easily
turn out to be of exceptional quality and improve for many years in
the bottle.
