We are so excited to announce our 5th annual STOMP Out Cancer fundraiser, hosted in conjunction with Relay for Life team The Greyhounds on Sunday, October 4th from 12-4 pm.

Since then, STOMP has taken on a special significance for our family and all of those who have been affected by the loss of a loved one or a personal battle with cancer. STOMP is a fun, family-friendly event where guests have the chance to take part in a traditional grape stomp, while supporting a great cause!…

>>> READ MOREThe 2014 harvest wrapped up early this year with all our grapes in by the second week of October. The farming work is complete and now it is in Chad’s very capable hands to complete the process. Quite a process it is, considering you won’t see the red wines from this vintage until 2016 or 2017. That means this is the vintage we will likely celebrate our daughter, Kirsten’s (aka Lizzy) high school graduation with.
