All the fruit has been processed, and harvest activities are settling down. But here are some of our favorite shots of grape bunches coming into the cellar this season. We may have eaten a few.

Working in a collaborative w**ery means spending your days with other w**emakers and helping each other out. We wanted to share this gorgeous Nebbiolo that Jon Larson brought in last week for Redolent W**e. ⁠
⁠
This vintage is a beauty, and we’re all excited to share the 2026 w**es with you!

Thank you to our incredible harvest crew for all the long hours and hard work going into this harvest. ⁠
⁠
GC W**es could not be made without the coworkers, friends, and connections that happen after three decades in the w**emaking community. ⁠
⁠
W**eries working together in a collective w**emaking space help each other daily, and words don’t exist to express how much gratitude we have for this coworking space.

Scenes from harvest at GC W**es: a yellowjacket enjoying juice, pumpovers on Pinot Noir in the bin, and stems spilling out of the destemmer. ⁠
⁠
All of these pictures carry a unique harvest sound: the buzz of yellowjackets humming over grapes, the Pinot Noir juice hitting the cap with a splash, the destemmer turning, the motor humming. Together, the noises of harvest are fine-tuned to sound like music to a w**emaker’s ears.

The 2024 Albarino is freshly released, ready for your fall table! ⁠
⁠
Rich white peach with lime zest. A rippling creek over wet stones. Acidity to pear with seafood or grilled cheese. A delightful w**e for any occasion.
