Harvest 2020 at Rubino Estates in Photos

Last week, our winemaker, Jesse Plautz, took us on a tour of the vineyard to show us his process for sampling grapes. As of this week, all of our Sauvignon Blanc is in the winery fermenting away! We also brought in Sangiovese but will continue to monitor the other red grapes to determine the best time to harvest them. One of the benefits of the strange skies is that it protects the grapes from too much sun which might cause the grapes to ripen too quickly. Slow and steady wins the race when it comes to developing ideal physiological ripeness. We hope you enjoy this visual diary of a day at the winery!
