Notes from the Vineyard
Day in the Life of Harvest: Part Two
October 6, 2021
Welcome back for Part Two of our Day in the Life of Harvest series! Here at our Estate, we like to say that harvest is like our World Series: our crew has worked all year tending each vine by hand in order to bring our fruit to perfect ripeness. The six to eight weeks of harvest are the culmination of all that hard work, and is when we see the results.
