Frost
We spend a lot of time talking about frost, I thought this article could make the issue more real: http://www.winespectator.com/webfeature/show/id/Frost-Strikes-France’s-Burgundy-and-Loire-Wine-Regions

I enjoyed out discussion about frost during class today. These images show how vineyard managers take action to avoid frost damaging their vines. 2017 in Europe was a particularly difficult year. Protecting the vines is important to ensure a viable crop. Frost is more challenging in spring and fall, hail is a challenge throughout the year.
