So harvest ended as quickly as it started and we rolled right through it! Here, a few highlights of the season. It was light, but we got some nice fruit and we are already having fun seeing how the vintage is going to shape up.

Looking forward to fall, the holidays and sipping a few good glasses. Cheers to another year! 🥂

Dry Creek Valley Harvest Mornings. 🍇 What else can we say?

Harvest is not over yet! Up in rugged Humboldt County this week at Elk Prairie, harvesting Pinot Noir 🍇 Picked and sorted 20% whole cluster layered at the bottom of the tank. Elk Prairie is essentially our first estate vineyard as we are responsible for farming it. Lucky to have family in the area to help so we can cut down the commute!

Looking forward to how this w**e develops over the coming months. Cheers! 🍷

Harvest Update 🍇

Adrian sampled last week and we’ll be picking at Hallberg Ranch as early as tomorrow. Small, beautiful clusters of Pinot Noir hung on a bit longer, thanks to some cooling fog in the Russian River. Still an early harvest...But not THAT early!

Looking forward to bringing in the fruit and working on those 2026 w**es. Raise a glass to harvest tonight. 🍷

We are excited to be among the few w**eries listed here! Love making Sauv Blanc - thanks for the kind words Press Democrat 💛

School may be back in session, but there are still plenty of summery Sauvignon Blancs to be had, especially from Sonoma County.

Ah, Pinot Noir. 🍇 A grape so beloved we’ll play dress up to celebrate it!

Scenes from this year’s Pinot Forum R.R.V. Bacchanalia - an annual celebration of Pinot Noir, and a fitting share on .

It’s no secret that this is one of our favorite varietals. From Humboldt to the Russian River Valley we love making these challenging, and rewarding w**es.

Raise a glass to Pinot Noir today. 🍷 Russian River Valley W**egrowers Adrian Manspeaker

Remembering our Humboldt W**e Weekend with the best partners Benbow Historic Inn and Da Vine W**e Tours Thanks to all who joined us to sip local w**es in this gorgeous setting, make the trek up to Phelps Vineyard - let’s just say it’s “remote” 🍇 - and break bread at our w**emaker dinner at the Benbow’s historic dining room. 🥖

Humboldt County is home to W**emaker, Adrian Manspeaker and we couldn’t be more proud to be making w**es from this unique place. 🍷 Until next year!

First pick! 🍇 Harvest kicked off for us this morning at Hallberg Ranch, picking Pinot Noir for Rosé. If you’ve been tracking the harvest, you know it’s early this year, but the fruit is looking great and we are excited to see what surprises and challenges the vintage has in store for us.
Good luck to Adrian on getting some sleep over the next couple of months and cheers to our big w**e community on a good season. Let’s go!! 🍾 Russian River Valley W**egrowers Taste West County Emeritus Vineyards
