It's nearing the end of veraison - a significant time in the vineyard when the berries start to change colour, developing flavour ready for harvest. In the View from the Vines series, we've been following John Douglas as he works his five hectare Te Hera vineyard east of Martinborough and earlier this month it was time to put the nets on.
