Boîtes de légumes, poivrons, tomates.
We installed three large vegetable boxes near our well in the vineyard this year and planted tomatoes and two kinds of peppers, both generally popular in traditional Hungarian cuisine — sweet paprika peppers (for Chicken Paprikas) and gypsy peppers, a brilliantly neon green small pepper that can be eaten with dips, stuffed, or used as an accompaniment for Paprikas. So far everything has been thriving and we’re looking forward to a September harvest for most of the veggies.
Sugar accumulation has already begun in the Sauvignon Blanc — the fruit has set with nicely spaced clusters, and not as much of the bunching as in the Merlot.
