Well this year I expected big things out of my 4 year old Merlot vine. Pictured is the 1 cluster I got last season. Looks like it should I think. Here are 2 pictures of the 2 clusters that are on the vine this year. What happened? I'm bummed to say the least. I'm in the PNW north of Seattle. We had an average summer I think.![IMG_2109.jpg IMG_2109.jpg](https://cdn2.imagearchive.com/winemakingtalk/data/attachments/61/61656-a54aeda0047eba9bf3c146c9817cb0df.jpg)
