(These 3 photos feature my 3-year old La Crescent grape vine.)
Here is a cluster from April 19, 2012.
(The first photo is of the young Japanese Buckwheat I am using as a cover crop. The goal is to always improve the soil by increasing biomass, have something growing to compete with undesirable weeds, attract beneficial insects, and with other cover crops attempt to improve the nitrogen levels - Fava Beans, for example. Just best to never have a barren soil at any stage of the off or on-season, which implies my growing interest in utilizing summer and winter cover crops.)
