The anticipation is over, and the moment we’ve all been waiting for has finally arrived – harvest season is officially underway at Sweet Cheeks Winery! We are thrilled to share the exciting news that our vineyards are buzzing with activity as the first fruits of the season make their grand entrance. Last week, we received the exquisite Sauvignon Blanc grapes from the picturesque Quail Run vineyards, beginning an extraordinary journey from vine to bottle. But that’s not all; to dodge the rain forecasted over the weekend, we wasted no time and picked our Pinot Gris blocks, ensuring the high quality our members and wine enthusiasts have come to expect from us.
The Sauvignon Blanc grapes from Quail Run Vineyards have always been a highlight of our harvest season. This year is no exception, as we welcomed this varietal with open arms. These grapes, bathed in the Rogue Valley sun and nurtured by the rich terroir of the region, have delivered vibrant flavors and aromatic notes that will undoubtedly make a lasting impression in our upcoming vintage.
As we kept a close eye on the weather forecast, Leo and his team strategically decided to accelerate the harvest of our Pinot Gris blocks over the weekend. This proactive approach allowed us to protect the integrity of the grapes and maintain the high quality that defines our wines. While rain loomed in the forecast, our skilled harvest crew moved swiftly to bring in these beautiful, juicy clusters.
The Pinot Gris grapes, known for their versatility and expressive qualities, show exceptional promise this season. We can’t wait to witness how their distinct personality will shine through in the wines to come.
As we embark on this journey from vine to bottle, we promise to keep you updated every step of the way. Your support and enthusiasm are the driving forces behind our commitment to excellence, and we can’t wait to pour the fruits of our labor into your glasses. Thank you for being part of the Sweet Cheeks Winery family, and here’s to a bountiful and unforgettable harvest season!
Cheers to great grapes and extraordinary wines!
