Estate Vineyard Tour & Lunch

Spaces still available for Saturday, July 18

Picnic in the Vineyard

Join us for our second vineyard lunch and tour. Bring a friend!

We'll be pouring our award-winning Pinots and our Pinot Rosé, paired with seasonal fare including strawberries and salmon prepared by our friend, wine lover and talented chef Paul Parenteau.

Grape Update: the clusters have formed and we're getting close to berry touch. It's an exciting time to see your Pinot in progress!

The June tour was a delicious and edifying success. Vineyard manager Dustin Miller showed us the rapid growth of the vines and pre-bloom clusters. See pictures of the event.
