October begins with the Taste of France and Mid-Valley Wine Trail contest and every day is a good one to picnic on the patio. Call ahead and we can arrange a yummy picnic for you, or bring one from home.

Lessons of Fall

September means veraison and bottling, and in Shooting the Breeze, the Van Duzer Vineyards blog, winemaker Jerry Murray reflects how previous vintages and walking the vineyards guides his winemaking decisions.

In her pre-harvest report, vineyard operations manager Rebecca Sweet covers preparations for another cool harvest by drawing from last year's lessons in leaf pulling, early fall rains and ravenous, fruit-loving birds.

Bluegrass and BBQ draw Labor Day crowd to Van Duzer
|
 |
As the sun set behind the west hill, the smell of BBQ pierced the warm September air. The rhythmic sounds of bluegrass filled the vineyard and the clank of horseshoes and laughter brought comfort and memories of days past. Friends gathered at picnic tables and hay bales to share stories, to bask in the warm glow of the night and toast their glasses of Van Duzer.
