Read how the vines recovered from the June 4, 2018 frost at #johnstonvineyards. See the full article bit.ly/2xNZE6A. 30% of all vines planted in 2017 died in the frost. 95% of the grape crop was lost. Despite the damage vines recovered. Sharon Mulvagh MD FRCPC FASE FACC Jay J.

#JohnstonVineyards wraps it up for 2019. The crop was small due to previous weather events. Grapes ripened nicely despite the late spring. Brix ranged from 17-21. Vidal ripen last and was picked Nov 3. Read more at bit.ly/2rPvTTs. Sharon Mulvagh MD FRCPC FASE FACC Jay J.
