AUSTIN, Texas– The hot and dry days continue inCentral Texas Many markets have actually felt the effect.

Central Texas wineries have actually lost crops, however some, like Solaro Estate Vineyard and Wineries, are discovering methods to adjust to the hot and dry conditions.

Viticulturist at Solaro, Erica Fritz, stated they have actually altered the method they plant their vines.

” A brand-new drought-resistant rootstock,” she stated. “So that we do not need to provide rather a lot water. So they’ll, you understand, press their roots down a bit even more so that they can get their own water.”

The objective of this brand-new rootstock is for the vines to not count on them for water. Instead, they discover it themselves. Also, Frtiz stated, the more difficult the plant works, the much better the grape.

“The grapes themselves are going to be much better,” she stated. “So, you understand, whenever you get excellent grapes throughout the world, they all require to sort of suffer a bit. So you desire them in a bit of an exhausting environment.”

Under these conditions, the yield will be less, however the quality will be greater. Fritz stated a number of their vines passed away in 2015 due to the fact that they could not get adequate water.

Now, they will wait on 3 to 4 years for their brand-new vines to flourish. In the meantime, they’ll be sourcing their grapes from other vineyards they handle in the Hill Country.
