Picture of the Day: from Rachelle Clark October 29, 2007

From bud break to bloom, fruit set to veraison, ripe into harvest; I watched and studied the Bishop Creek Vineyard for the last two growing seasons. I fought with the weather to achieve the photos I wanted, much as the grapes fought with the weather for the conditions they needed.
The 2006 summer was a long, hot summer that allowed them to take their time and get as sweet as they wanted.
The 2007 summer was moodier and created awhole different style of beautiful characteristics. Yet, at all times, the grapes were growing, changing, and becoming something
of their own.

at Urban Wineworks in Portland, Oregon during the month of November.
