This year, Concetta has been deep in the trenches taking on a new seasonal project as our honorary “Harvest Intern.” For years, Concetta has hinted to Kyle that she wants to work a harvest season out in the vineyards and winery.

Thankfully, we have our Proprietor and Vineyard Manager Kyle Lerner on hand to provide some insight into what to expect for the coming year and your 2017 vintages!
