Thanksgiving!
We are thankful that our crop of 2024 is now in tanks or barrels! We picked 51,451 pounds of grapes despite the drought and the 9.5 inches of rain in the middle of harvest. We went into the hurricane weather with some of the best fruit ever and most of the grapes held on. We did lose a few grapes, but we had an abundance of several varieties, so the loss was minimal. Wines tasted from this season have great potential because of high sugar levels and great numbers, despite the weather.
Thanks to all the folks who helped us pick grapes, both staff and volunteers. Thanks to all our great customers and friends who buy our wines and keep us in business!
Cheers to the upcoming season and be sure to get your LOCAL holiday wines at MountainRose Vineyards!
