It is well protected during that time. I belive it is better for them to have a rest the whole winter than being cooked at day time and go back to freezing for the night.
I fared well this way, even with up to two weeks of prolonged frost in some years. My lowest so far was maybe -14 C.

Dang they have some nice size so far! Looks like you preserved almost all of the pseudo... How the heck did you do that? (I have to overwinter 18 groves so hopefully it was a fairly simple method haha).
They look amazing so far though!
