If the berries are still there, try getting a milk crate or step stool, and stand on it. Take the same shot, but from an elevated POV (point of view). That will put the darker vegetation in the background, and eliminate the over-exposed sky. That will naturally increase the contrast, and bring out even more intensity in the red.

If you can't get something to stand on, raise the camera over your head and shoot down. Since you won't be able to compose the shot carefully that way, move your arms into different positions and shoot a dozen shots. It's likely that one of them will have the desired effect.
