Last week I commented in my post Backsberg sees the light…at 4am that at this time of the year, being summer, the temperature is fairly high.
Clive Trent, Backsberg's farm manager, kindly collated some temperature data represented above which confirms that last week was decidedly warm.
The temperate table represents the daily minimum and maximum temperatures from 24h00 to 24h00. So on the 25th the minimum and maximum was 32,0 and 40,2 degrees Celsius respectively.
Therefore the average minimum and maximum for the week period were 28,8 and 36,1 respectively.
A well chilled bottle of sauvignon blanc sounds good about now.

Excellent, I'm so excited to read about the happenings & going-ons at the Backsberg farm. Ever since I was a wee little one, my family have always visited & bought your wines...now following your blogs allows me to a)actually learn something other than how nice the wine tastes & b)find out more about one of SA's premier wine estates.
Yay!
What a pleaseure this blog is- AND the fact that it is ONE of the FAMILY makes it really meaningful...Please keep writing!
