The last load is in, and the 2026 harvest is complete. 🍇
Today, Brandon brought home the final grapes of the season, and we finished our last crush with Carménère, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, and Dolcetto.
There’s something bittersweet about this day. After the long drives, heavy lifting, and seemingly endless cleanup, there’s relief in knowing every grape is finally here. But there’s also a little sadness in saying goodbye to the season we spend so much of the year anticipating.
Harvest has a way of filling our days completely. We’re tired, our hands are stained, and we’re ready to catch our breath—yet we’ll miss the excitement of each arrival and the possibilities waiting in every bin.
Of course, those possibilities are still unfolding. Fermentation and daily cellar work will keep Brandon and Sarah busy as we guide this vintage toward the w**es we’ll someday pour for you.
For today, we’re taking a moment to appreciate what it took to get here. Thank you for supporting our small family w**ery and sharing another harvest with us. Knowing these w**es will eventually find their way to your tables makes the work especially meaningful.
A little weary, a little wistful, and very grateful. Here’s to the 2026 harvest. 🍷
