Green competition for precious drops

Sunny Champagne. Warm Champagne.

We face a week with temperatures that may reach 37 degrees Celsius.

Quite warm. And as you may imagine, eventually also quite dry.

Of course the vines dig what they need underground. However since we grow grass between the vines, there is now a growing need to get to the precious drops.

Which is why we may prepare the gear to simply plough the grass out of competition this week.

We like the green look, but if it is a matter of choise we prefer the vines greener than the grass.
