    Sorry, don't know - you seem to be doing things right... the only constructive thing I can add is that there are some varieties which are more resistant to mildew than others.  The three "Hinnomaki" ones and "Invicta" come to mind, but there may be others too.
    Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.

    It's been a bad year for mildews here which I suspect it's a result of the inconsistent weather.
    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.
