Hand Harvesting

2025 Saw Our first Grape Harvest

Yesterday marked a huge milestone for our family vineyard – our very first grape harvest! We picked and personally delivered our Bacchus grape to the winery. with many more varieties still waiting to be harvested.

Watching the fruit tumble into the press was such a special moment. We’re so grateful to the fantastic team at @hennersvineyard for patiently walking us through each step of the intricate winemaking process.

Tomorrow brings another first: harvesting with a mechanical harvester. Yet another part of this incredible learning journey.
