Greetings!


There's a whole lot of ripening going on


August has been a fantastic month for our grapes.
With all the sun and hot weather we've had,
veraison is well under way and we're
gearing up for a great harvest in September.
Stop by, taste some wine and check out the
action in the vineyard.

To find out what "veraison" means, click on the video below...


Ver·ai·son (vər-ā'-zhun)
The onset of the ripening process.  The transition from berry growth to berry ripening: when the grapes begin to soften and change color.
