This year’s Winter Technical Meeting of the Virginia Vineyards Association will permit either in-person and virtual attendance. Sessions will include an update on fighting spotted lanternfly, discussions on downy mildew and ripe rot, and a look at new varietals for Virginia, with a focus on Tannat and white vinifera. Pesticide application recertification will be available, and industry exhibitors will be on-site. A virtual pre-meeting on integrated disease management will take place on February 16.
