One of our favorite harvest traditions is when w**emaker Tom Garrett gathers the team before processing each new delivery of grapes. He shares a little history about the vineyard, what makes the fruit special, and what we're working with that day.

Even those of us who've been around a while always learn something new, and for our harvest interns, it's an incredible opportunity to learn from Tom's years of experience.

Sometimes even the smallest details of w**emaking make for the most beautiful images.

Another busy harvest morning on the crush pad at Dakota Shy. Tom and Orlando welcoming another delivery of freshly picked grapes and getting everything ready for processing.

Even Nikki, Tom's little four-legged sidekick, was on hand to make sure everything arrived safely!

A little behind-the-scenes look at harvest with our w**emaking team.

Tom and Ellen hard at work, loading freshly picked grapes into the press and keeping things moving at the w**ery. There's a lot of skill, experience, and attention to detail that goes into every step of the process, and it's always impressive watching this team do what they do best.

Just another busy day at Dakota Shy during harvest!

Harvest is a busy time at Dakota Shy, and our w**emaking team is right in the middle of it all. As the freshly picked fruit arrives at the w**ery, it's all hands on deck, carefully sorting and processing the grapes that will become our next vintage.

Long days, plenty of hard work, and a team that takes pride in every detail. It's one of our favorite times of the year!

Harvest is a team effort, and we're lucky to have some great people helping us bring this vintage to life.
