Here in Lodi we are beginning our 2014 harvest season anticipating  larger than usual  tonnage.  For the Grady’s we will harvest our pinot grigio  grapes starting on Sunday evening.  They are located at our west side Lodi property and will be harvested by machine.  It will take 2 nights to harvest our 20 acres.  It is always a beautiful site to see the harvester begin it’s run, at sunset, down the first row of grapes!  check out our Facebook page for pictures!
At the same time we will be hand picking  our 300 pinot noir grape vines. These will be used to make our award winning wine ( ’14 Gold medal award winner at the SF Chronicle Wine Competition).  This will always be a limited production wine …120- 140 cases.  It is made in the French style with delicious ripe strawberry  flavors and a rick, smooth finish on the pallet.

We will be adding posts as the harvest continues over the next month.

Until then,

Enjoy Grady wine !
