It's Spring in the vineyards. We have grape bloom in vineyards all over Napa Valley. Workers are cultivating and pulling weak canes to get a strong, healthy crop.
We're busy inside the winery, too. Barrels of the 2011 Vintage are already stored for aging. We've completed bottling of Smith Wooton Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Now it's back to storage for bottle aging. May 5th & 6th we'll bottle our 2009 Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon and more 2010 Chardonnay!
