Harvest Day, September 21, 2013

Cannon River Winery informed us earlier this week that our Sabrevois and Louise Swenson grapes were ripe and ready to be picked.  We have been bringing them samples of 100 grapes taken randomly from both varieties for the past three weeks.  This week our numbers are where they want them, so we picked and delivered our crop on Saturday.

Here are a few fun videos.  We will also add more photos later.
