Tricking the Climate | New Brief #274
There has been a heatwave in Europe. Again. No one has missed it, not even those who still walk around saying things like “I actually think it’s nice when it’s warm.” According to The Economist, “warming is accelerating faster in Europe than on any other continent.” In other words, we haven’t seen the last heatwave, […] Continue reading: Tricking the Climate | New Brief #274 The post Tricking the Climate | New Brief #274 was originally published on BKWine Magazine and written by Britt Karlsson .

Ontario Chardonnay Review: Growing Seasons and the Wines
I have been interviewing Ontario winery principals for many years about their harvest and the growing season. Weather and growing conditions can vary widely from year to year. For my Ontario Chardonnay Review I tried to get wines that were from one or two growing seasons. Most of the wines I received came from 2023 and 2024, with a few...

2026: Early to the Party
What does that mean for the vintage? Budbreak came early to California this year, which by itself isn’t that strange. There are years when we’ve seen buds start to push by the end of February. But then what started as a warm February gave way to abnormally warm temperatures in March and early April. This […] The post 2026: Early to the Party appeared first on Advanced Viticulture .

Frost Protection
Just outside of Athens, the earliest bud breaker at the Horticulture Research Farm, Lomanto, has broken bud. This is about a week earlier than usual where our last spring frost is often in mid April. While the start of a new season is always exciting, we are also at risk for damage from spring frosts […] Read More

Gloom and Doom
The weather for the past 2 weeks has not been great. I appreciate nowhere near as bad as other northern counties of the UK or Northern Europe, but nevertheless grim and grey. We managed to escape any of the heavy snow in London, but the temperatures have hovered near freezing, sometimes dipping below or just slightly above. It has meant I have been nervous to switch off my central heating at night as I am terrified the water pipes will burst and cost me a fortune to rectify. In the last 10 days I have been out of the house once. Partly because I managed to catch a cold-like bug at new year and so was full of sniffles and coughs, but also because it was too grim and cold to bother going out. On Thursday I had a good excuse to attempt an outing - a choir social event in the evening - no singing just partying - but I cried off as the forecast was not good and I was also fearful my car battery might not spark into action as I had not driven it for over a fortnight. I didn't want to be stuc

What does a prolonged heat wave mean for the vintage?
It could be worse… We are wrapping up a particularly hot July. The last time I had to write about heat stress was 2022, so this year seems to be making up for 2023’s persistent coolness. We all remember 2022. We had a couple hot days in late June that did quite a bit of […] The post What does a prolonged heat wave mean for the vintage? appeared first on Advanced Viticulture .
