"We" finally finished harvesting on Monday, Oct. 12th. Jim and I participated in two days of harvesting, Oct. 5th & 9th. Both days were foggy in the morning, the first morning was a lot colder as the fog rose and stayed at the vineyard level. The grapes were happy though and that is all that counts. All totaled, there was about 38 tons of Pinot Noir harvested from the Lenné Estate Vineyard. Not bad, for a nine year old vineyard. It is growing up to be something wonderful.

Enjoy a little slideshow of the two days Jim and I spent at the vineyard harvesting; me, mostly taking pictures

Keep your eye out for the 2009 vintage late next year or early 2011, you are going to like it.
