- Intervention effect Withholding irrigation before or after veraison imposed significant water deficits.
- Intervention effect Doubling irrigation increased fruit growth, cluster initiation, and bud differentiation.
- Intervention effect Increasing irrigation above standard practice raised yield by 30% to 40%.
- Observation Vine water status decreased until veraison across treatments.
- Observation Treatment differences in vine water status emerged only after fruit set.
- Intervention effect All water deficits depressed second crop development.
- Association Variation in berries per cluster explained the greatest amount of yield variation.
