Hands-on Harvest

Participants will arrive by in the morning and take a vineyard tour with the winemaker, collecting samples of fruit for harvest along the way. You will learn how to measure sugar and help determine optimum pick time of our Sangiovese. The tour will continue to Fenton Herriott Vineyards’ crush pad to get a glimpse of what happens after pick. You will learn about the crusher/de-stemmer process, punch down, taste fermenting wine, pressing the wine, and finally barreling. Afterwards, you will move into the cellar and experience a vertical tasting of our Estate Sangiovese. A light lunch will be served and admission includes a bottle of 2016 Sangiovese to take home with you.
