Chardonnay Harvest is a Celebration

      Tomorrow we will celebrate the beginning or our 2012 Vintage Chardonnay.  All the numbers are coming together to create one of the finest bottles of wine that we have ever made here at Cassel Vineyards.  If you are familiar with our Chardonnay you know that we like a clean, crisp, snappy nose with lots of green apple and fruit along with a clean fresh finish.  Since the whole process is done in stainless steel the quality of the wine is only determined by two things, #1 is the quality of the grapes and the grapes are beautiful this year.  #2 is the strain of yeast and that doesn't change from one year to the next.  As a result, it looks like the stars are aligned to produce another excellent quality Chardonnay this coming year.  If you would like to be a part of our celebration we will be picking, crushing and pressing these beautiful clusters of berries for the next two days.  Stop by and have a taste of what's going into next year's bottles.

    We will not be celebrating Jazz in the Vines until next week in our new First Fridays of Fall Jazz series.  Hope to see you then.
