Nissen Estate Winery-Drink 182

Nissen Estate Winery-Drink 182 Just a small, family vineyard in Wilton, CA. I have 182 vines that produce Zinfandel, Cabernet, Merlot, Syrah and Barbera.

The vineyard has been growing like crazy. Been thinning it out for the past few days before it starts to rain.

It’s that time of the year! Testing sugar levels and trying to figure out the optimal time to pick each varietal. Looks like the Merlot is going to be first.
