Harvest Update
We pressed off Dolcetto and it is in tank for a week or so before moving to barrels. Cool and rainy weather in the High Plains have slowed our Texas harvest. We should see Trebbiano and Riesling in late this week and Sangiovese and Mourvedre next week. California harvest will be light this year, but expecting Chardonnay later next week.
