How pruning is done in Burgundy (Bourgogne) - some pictures and commentary from last week wineanorak.com/2026/04/15/how… @VinsdeBourgogne

@MarkGoucher3 @ClimatsUNESCO @VinsdeBourgogne Yes this is weeding under vine

@jamiegoode @ClimatsUNESCO @VinsdeBourgogne I’m sure the marketeers would prefer to keep the illusion that grapes from a GC vineyard are tended by loving hands rather than a robot. Still, I think we will see more of this, if it keeps costs down and does a good if not better job. Is this one removing ground cover?

@MarkGoucher3 @Winemag Ha ha yes ‘wee’

@jamiegoode @Winemag Thought provoking article, thanks. Not to make light of it, but this was my favourite line ‘And what about whites? Wee geeky insiders love Riesling’. I pictured a small Scotsman critically appraising a glass of Wehlener Sonnenuhr 🤣

@ADHalliwell @Winemag Very wise

@jamiegoode @Winemag That's an interesting piece and well-explained. At my winery in #Rioja we are actually making 2 lines of wine. Normal Rioja with some fruit and a little bit of oak, the sort of thing that just about everybody expects. And then a #VillageWine, which I'm orientating towards pros.

This is big news. Historic #Cava producer #JuvéyCamps has left Cava to join #Coprinnat, almost doubling that group's size. It's the first big producer to join Corpinnat, but Cava still remains the giant in the sector and recently has done quite a bit to shore up its image.

@JoyRupert @TourellesLiban @TheWineSociety This is a lovely wine

Thinking tonight of poor beautiful Lebanon, once again at the mercy of its neighbours. An outstanding old vine Cinsault from @TourellesLiban. Good value from @TheWineSociety⁩.

If @ManCity got deducted enough points to cause relegation then next season will be totally amazing in the championship and someone should film it. I will go to lots of games!!!

@mariocanora Very good

The life O’Reilly too much for Arsenal. He’ll get the headlines but so many good performances from Manchester City. James Trafford’s triple save, and good feet in distribution. Rayan Cherki put on a show. Antoine Semenyo excellent first half. And 31-year-old Bernardo Silva tireless and tigerish, creative in midfield in his 43rd game of the season. Shielding the back-four, covering back, launching attacks, the captain setting the standard. Just pure will to win in his 43rd game of the season. Silva gets the silverware. #ARSMCI

@lospilares11 Zero adds, zero vineyard sprays

@jamiegoode how would you define “radically” natural?
