Harvest Update
Things are starting to dry out in the Texas High Plains. We are expecting Cabernet Sauvignon, Mourvedre, and Sangiovese mid-week and have Aglianico still ripening - probably two weeks out.
California harvest will be light this year, especially with the drastic heat spike dehydrating grapes. Chardonnay, Viognier, and Zinfandel came in last week.
Saturday and Sunday, October 1st & 2nd, 1:00 - 5:00 PM
(out back of the Tasting Room Building 2-B).
Join us for the squishing and stomping at the 5th Annual Harvest Grape Stomp!
- Squishing and stomping the grapes in a barrel or bin (just like on I Love Lucy)
- Recording your stomp by stepping on your tee shirt with your grape juice feet Go home with your commemorative foot-stained tee shirt.
- Plastic logo glass
- Barrel sampling of one varietal
