It's Harvest time here in Wine Country! We wait all year for our one chance to create beautiful wine for you...and you're coming along for the day! Ride along with Michael and I for the pick, sorting and extra special crush (hint: STOMP) that happened on September 9th. You'll hear:

• The vineyard crew hand picking our Sangiovese grapes
• A special check in with our growers Joe and Travis Ramazzotti
• The sorting process that only allow the BEST grapes into the mix
• How I react to spiders in my hair
• Our creative solution(PIVOT!) to crush the grapes this year (Lucy would be proud)
• All of the emotions that come along with Harvest Day
