Beginnings

And a new year has started… Not just on the calendar but in the vineyards as well. Soon we’ll start pruning the vines and making the thousands of decisions that will affect the quality and quantity of this year’s crop. In the meantime, the mild temperatures have allowed us to get caught up on maintenance and projects around the winery.

Our new Chambourcin is in the bottle - the release party is this Saturday – and soon we’ll be blending five barrels of Norton and bottling it also.  It’s an exciting time of the year – finishing up the wines from last years harvest and preparing the vineyards for this years crop – and I wouldn’t trade it for anything…
