Greetings Dave, I have enjoyed watching your videos so very much. You have quite a gift for teaching. Thank you for taking the time to pass along all this info. My wife and I are building a house and preparing to put in a vineyard in Missouri. I look forward to implementing many of your hints, tips and techniques. I also look forward to watching your next lesson. Tom

Hi Dave, Another good lesson! We will be planting in Sonoma in a few days and have employed a lot of elements from your videos to prepare over the last year. Then, will celebrate with a bottle of 2008 One Acre Cab that I found at K&L in SF. Thanks again.

Hi brucegoren They can be a little vulnerable with 2 buds, but they usually push much stronger, and the angel cut was something I was shown, I try to do that on all my pruning cuts. Doc Farwells is a great product and I like to use it too, it just depends on the cut. That is great to hear about your sister, I am always impressed by the knowledge and tasting skills of sommeliers. Thanks for sending her a link when we get underway. Talk to you soon, Dave

Hi colinfiona1 Thanks very much for your message, happy to hear the videos have been of some help, just sharing what I have found helpful. Enjoy the 2008, that is the vintage that won a double gold award and a trophy at the China Wine Awards in Hong Kong on February 24th Thanks for watching, Dave

Hi Tom It is very nice to hear from you, happy to hear you enjoyed the videos, hope that they help a little when you get your vineyard in. Just wanted to share what I had learned and what helped me as I went through the process. We filmed another video showing the growth of the plants since pruning, but we have been so busy we just haven't had time to get it up loaded yet. Hope to have it soon. Thanks very much for taking the time to write, Dave

Greetings Dave, Curious as to what you're using for grass/weed control in your rows.

Hi Dave, I have a doubt. Did you pruned the vines between planting and this video? Thanks and congratulations for the wonderful work, ARs
