Yesterday was a beautiful day. We are richly blessed with great friends and family ages 6- 88 who helped us to get 270 vines in the ground. We are thankful for the soil, the vines, the rain forecasted tomorrow, and healthy bodies to work.
Today we focus on infrastructure, tomorrow we give thanks for Spring rain, and Saturday we rest while the ground drinks it in.
Sunday we will begin planting again around 1.

  General Overview The winter months are an important part of the California table grape growing cycle. Growth and development stop temporarily and the vine rests. This stage is called “dormancy.” At this time, growers prune the vine and set it up for the upcoming growing season. Pruning and tr...

Just like any good ol Texan, these grapevines are hearty and strong! Nasty Old Man Winter 2021 can't keep us down. We are thriving! Bud break started about 2 weeks ago. We have some gorgeous little Cab Franc buds that will bloom into grapes and be harvested around early August. Then about 8 months later... WINE!!!
