When will the grapes arrive?
Accurate arrival dates for wine grapes are impossible to predict. In a typical year, harvest begins in late-August and continues through the end of October. This year's harvest is looking like it will be typical, starting in late-August (White grapes) and ending in September to early-October (Red grapes).
* Projected (Estimated Time of Arrival - ETA) arrival dates are subject to change until the actual harvest date is set. We always attempt to give buyers at least two to three days advanced notice of the arrival of their grapes. Confirmed, or "set" harvest dates will be designated by a parenthetical (s).
