Statistics for Our Varieties from 2019-2021

Since 2019, we have been taking our harvest to Jonathan Edwards Winery where Jon and his crew help us to press the grapes and turn the juice into wine. I thought that it would be interesting to compare the harvest date, weight, volume, Brix, and TA of the varieites that we grow in the vineyard. We also grow Barbera, but that variety is still maturing and we are making this wine in our basement.

It's interesting to see if there are any trends developing. One thing that is clear is that 2020 was an outstanding year for ripening and it is reflected in the wines we made in 2020.
