All of my shiraz came off two weeks ago. I had reasonable crops- maybe 25% down, but many Barossa vineyards were well down - 25 to 75% down. My Cabernet Sauvignon did not exist. I did not pick any whites. They are due to be pushed out. Just shows when you have an average shit year, compared to an extraordinary shit year, you feel optimistic.
Itīs hard to be a farmer, you are always depending on the weather for your income. Itīs a bit easier if you grow forest like I do. But itīs not fun what happend in Canada and USA with the beetle that killed enormous of hektars of forest.
