After the sorting the grapes they run they through a destemmer to remove the stems and anything we missed. We sorted through 2.6 tons [...]

Michelle for the Auction of Washington Wines Picnic to benefit Children’s Hospital and then the weather changed. The dark clouds rolled in and it started to sprinkle and people mostly seemed undisturbed. It is [...]
