Just amazed, this late in October to still have so much leaf coverage on the vines, growth continues, (just look at all the green spurs), in addition we spent time today enjoying some tasty 2nd fruit.

Next Monday, we will begin harvesting our Vidal Blanc. It has been ripening beautifully all month long, but it's ready. We are anticipating 3 tons for delivery. Should make some delicious 😋 w**e.

During our brief break last week, from harvesting, we focused on some maintenance to our cold room and our chillers. We scubbed and cleaned everything. We also applied two heavy coats of reflective elastomeric sealer to the exterior. The roof had previously been done, but we applied to all sun exposed sides.

We got some help today and finished off the Chambourcin. Loved watching our two oldest sons working side by side today, on land they love and grew up on. ❤️ Delivery set for tomorrow.

Our Chambourcin is ready to be picked. It looks beautiful and tastes even better. Someone please tell Allen not to eat what he picks, so we can save it to make w**e, not fill his stomach....

Put the Frontenac in the books. All grapes delivered, crushed, and are becoming w**e as I type. Next up will be our Chambourcin, but the question is, well, WHEN? The vines and fruit are giving us clues, so stay tuned here as we take a brief break from harvesting and go back to one of our 47 other vineyard jobs. Be well.

Monday morning, we'll gather at first light to collect the final Frontenac, We'll be looking for another 3,000 pounds or so to deliver to the Winery by Tuesday. It's going to be a hot one so, we'll start early and water up often. Blessings to our continued hardworking harvest crew. **e **ery **e

Had 1.8" in the vineyard gauge this morning. Not used to that much August rain, but we'll take it. Delivery today, then a day of rest tomorrow for everyone here at the vineyard. A few pics from loadout today.

Slight rain delay and lightning delay for today's harvest. We will start around 8 this morning to keep everyone safe.

Okay peeps, get ready, the Marquette harvest begins tomorrow, 6:30am sharp. Many of the Bobwhite team will be staying at the farm the next few days, to git er done. Hoping to deliver on Wednesday. Next week, we will most likely start harvesting our Frontenac. That grape has become my ultimate favorite grape to grow, harvest, eat, harvest, eat, and the deliver what I didn't eat, while picking. Wishing everyone out there a continued safe and blessed harvest. **e
