Carlton Cellars Crush Central
Be part of the tradition! Crush is the harvest winemaking ritual that comes around every autumn. It's the most fun and direct way for you to help make your favorite wines.
To get started: Sign Up on the Crush News List
We'll keep you posted with brief updates during Crush season. You'll get the vineyard play-by-play and find out when the next Crush day is happening, so you can join us on the Pinot action. Armchair crushers welcome too!
Crush is good fun, hard work, and there's just no better way to get involved with the wines you love than to get your hands on the grapes that go into them. (Nope, you won't be using your feet. Pinot Noir demands a finer touch.)
Come for the grapes and the camaraderie — and we'll feed you. Plus, everyone who joins the Carlton Crush Collective will be treated to a great after-Crush thank-you dinner.
Best of all you won't be out in the weather (as is the practice with many wineries). Our sorting lines are comfortably indoors, in our spiffy new winery facility in Carlton. Downright luxurious, as crushes go.
So roll up your sleeves and join us. Exact dates depend on the grapes and the weather, so you have to sign up on the Crush News List to get the scoop.
