that their vines are way behind schedule, pushing their picking window in the fall dangerously close to inevitable winter storms. Soaked fruit, mud, dilution and rot: winemakers shudder at the possibilites and get to work. As the prospect for a good harvest growes increasingly bleak, success will require humility, dedication and a vow to make nature a partner, come rain or shine.
