Accomplishments
Wine evaluations from grapes grown in NE1020 blocks are being done in several locations. This is one of the ultimate goals of the project and will be done in a more systematic fashion in the future. More emphasis on wine analyses will be placed on next year's program. A database of NE1020 wines will be compiled.
Protocols for sharing NE1020 data are being developed and placed on a password protected website.
Overall progress from the different participating states is very good. Production successes and issues related to the NE1020 collection are coming to light and wine quality analyses are underway.
