Grapes On The Edge In Terry County Weather Woes
Terry County grape grower Gibson says the weather has limited the harvest since 1992 with spring freezes and persistent winds. He notes some red grapes could have fared better, while whites remain marketable but weather dependent. He recalls 1990 fall freezes that wrecked other area vineyards and argues milder winters and early waking vines drive losses. Gibson believes long term growth is possible with hard work and varieties suited to the region.
