In the Vineyard
The vines have been pruned, the sheep have come and gone, and the cycle of life in the vineyard begins again. Budbreak, the little green buds have begun pushing their way out of the woody vines. Over the coming months the buds will grow into vines and around May we begin to see the little clusters of grapes begin to form. We love this time of year, the possibilities of the next vintage are endless!
We ♥️ Birds
The Red-breasted Sap Sucker has returned to its two favorite trees at Husch. A type of woodpecker, this bird drills holes in horizontal lines to allow the sap to flow. Rufous hummingbirds have been known to follow the Sap Suckers around and take advantage of this food source. And the tasting room has no shortage of Rufous hummingbirds, with their bright orange heads, they are notorious for dive bombing tasters sitting on the deck during egg laying season (don’t worry, they’ve never hit anyone). Visitors also become acquainted with the family of Scrub Jays that reside at Husch in the wisteria arbor. Quite bold, they are known to steal snacks and hop into the tasting room to have a quick look around. The next time you visit Husch for a wine tasting, be sure to install a birding app on your phone!
Around the Tasting Room
Let's talk about Peonies! This gorgeous, full, yet delicate flower grows along the south-facing Tasting Room wall and begins its debut in April with long red stalks shooting up from the soil. Our resident animal whisperer and green thumb, Rigo, has cultivated this bed from the seed of one unique flower. Each year, he collects additional seeds to add along the existing stalks. This practice has resulted in a full bed of round fragrant white flowers with delicate pink edges, exceptionally beautiful, and the bees love them.
