Hot weather is in the forecast which is really going to help raise up the brix.  The forecasters are currently calling for some 80 degree days the last week in September.  We have checked some of the brix and looks like pinot noir will crush out at about 22 at the moment.  Of course, some areas of field are riper than others but looks like harvest will officially begin the last weekend in September.

Pinot gris is thought to be a mutant of pinot noir.  According to Wikipedia, it normally has a greyish blue grape but colors can vary an be brownish pink to black in color.   We believe we are sold out of the gris at this time.  We will know more about poundage once we start harvesting them.

    I love the way the vines look like dancers and change with each season.
