I think we’ll have a Tara Bella 2012 ESTATE Cabernet to kick off the Holiday Season…Salute!
Have to trim the trees before we can ‘trim the trees.’
Come visit…such a beautiful time of year.
Presley and Thornton helping us sow about 40 gazillion California Poppy Seeds collected from last year.
We just love the colors of Fall. The grapes are harvested, the wine is in the barrel and the weather is getting colder…..
Looking across the ESTATE Vineyard this morning.
Thank you so much guys for bringing in all those grapes….. over 13 TON!!!!! Wow! Cooked up a big ole pile of Organic pork ribs…. Wendy M’s Guacamole… Wendy M’s Salsa….. various salads and of course… Modelo…. Especial y Negro……Muchas gracias por su ayuda, amigos………..
Early morning and our friend the fog has returned. Harvest continues as the day warms up…… another low 90s day…. Cabernet Sauvignon loving this Sonoma County weather….. cool foggy nights and very warm days….. perfect for growing grapes….
Our beautiful ESTATE Cabernet Sauvignon is loving this end of summer heat…. mid 90s for several days is just what the doctor ordered… Sugars are climbing. Testing at 24.2 – 25.1 degrees Brix….. So exciting…. Another beautiful harvest under way.
We got 3/4 inch of rain in about 45 minutes. Made for some awesome sky.

Planes began to fly over the vineyard from the Sonoma County airshow as we began harvesting the grapes.
