Four weeks or so before they harvest. A bloke was doing some pruning and asked. Although we have been when they have just started.The Mosel vineyards are impressively steep. Sometime, you might think about taking a jaunt through the champagne region. You can smell the money in some of the villages, which make the Cotswolds look poor. Similarly, there are some nice routes through the grape growing region of the Vosges and the Rhine. Indeed, each of France’s major wine growing regions are different geographically and culturally. All good to visit and ride about in.
I have been in the champagne region when they harvest the grapes. The roads can become slippery with juice, whilst the smell in the air makes you feel half pissed.
