Cabernet Franc

[Randy Caparoso]

Hi, Nancy. I'm not a viticulturist, but I do have eyes and ears. An interesting thing companies like Chateau Ste. Michelle have been doing for years in eastern Washington is plant double trunks. That way if one out of two dies in a particularly bad winter, growers don't take too much of a financial beating. You might want to research the pros and cons of that from a quality/quantity perspective, since I haven't.
