Harvest Time in Dry Creek Valley

Video of Harvest 2010
 

This is by far our favorite time of year in wine country.  Vineyards and wineries are abuzz with activity (seemingly around the clock) as a new vintage comes to fruition.  The other morning at sunrise, we took a ride out to Lewis Vineyard about 3 miles north of Dry Creek Vineyard.  Lewis Vineyard is a 75 year-old Old Vine vineyard nestled in the Eastern hillside of the Dry Creek Valley.  As we filmed and walked the vineyard, we were struck – not only by the natural beauty and surroundings – but also by how hard the vineyard crew worked.  Literally running through the vineyard picking grapes, these incredible harvest workers have our full respect and admiration. 

Please enjoy this video montage we put together and join us in a toast to Harvest 2010.  Another new vintage is here!
