Will,

I love Syrah.. They make a great wine.. I believe that is the grape
that they use for one of my favorite wines..

I have a question for ya, what do you use for
herbacide/fungicides/pesticides?? I am still clueless on this
matter.. Im going to get a hold of my county agent but I just haven't
had time.. I've been working alot of OT at the grind... haha

So how long have you been growing??? I am a newbie but have been
making wine for over a year..

Take care! Bryce
