Grape ripening HAS happened at Breaking Bud Vineyard - for our Picpoul Blanc grapes! Hurrah!!

We got together with Krista and Andy from Red River Wines and Provisions (our buyer) this morning to test sweetness, acidity and taste, and the Picpoul Blanc has qualified for harvest! Our Syrah and Monastrell are still on track for a 8/22 or 8/29 harvest date.

Grape ripening is starting to happen at Breaking Bud!!

Our PicPoul Blanc harvest is looking like it will be August 15 and our Syrah harvest August 22!! I’ll confirm both these dates as we get closer, but wanted yall to pencil them in on your calendar.

Come for the grapes, stay for the folks!! You’re sure to meet some new friends at these harvest events, we always do!

We’ll start at 7:30am and harvest until no later than 11:30am, then we’ll come inside to the air conditioned Event Center for burgers and brats, and some great wine from Red River Wines, some of which were made from Breaking Bud grapes, which some of you harvested!! How cool is that?!

What a great season this is for the grape grower as our biggest day of the year is rapidly approaching - harvest! Grape ripening evaluation is currently underway every 4 days as we try to determine when the right day to harvest is. We taste, measure sugar & acidity, look at seed & juice color to decide when peak ripeness is. We’re meeting with Krista our buyer/winemaker on Saturday and will have a better idea of when our harvest dates are after that. Right now we are “penciled in” for harvest on Aug 15 & 22, but that could change based on how fast ripening occurs. Stay tuned and as flexible as possible, we’ll finalize soon! We would love to share the harvest experience with you!!

BTW, we pick up the commemorative tee shirts tomorrow & I’m told they look awesome!!

While I was on a break from leaf-pulling in the PicPoul Blanc vines this morning, my old buddy came by for a short visit, showing off the lunch he was taking home to momma… a lizard I think… bragger!

Here is an update for our "Family of Friends" harvest volunteers. We are just weeks away from Harvest 2026, and it is ONLY THE BEGINNING! Every year has its ups and downs, but gathering our wine community together for harvest, is always the high point.
Here is our launch video for this year's Breaking Bud Classic Rock Grape Paradise Event. Keep an eye out for the final harvest dates. Coming soon!
