Since 1903 this land has been cultivated by the Cassel Family. Brothers Craig and Chris are the 5th generation to harvest the bounty from this fertile land. As stewards of the land, we take pride in growing the highest quality grapes and hand crafting them into unique local wines.

Pruning While the Weather Is Warm
We are trying to get a handle on the pruning while we have the warm mid-winter thaw. It has been beautiful working in the fields while the temperature has been in the 50s. However, things are going to change. Here you can see our pruning crew. The boys are really getting good at the work and enjoy making a little spending money. Chris and I agree that listening to their friendly banter in the field is one of the funniest things we have ever heard. They just go on for hours non-stop about girls, wrestling, hunting, fishing, one another or things they have heard or said. Who needs Facebook we hear it all through the grapevine! Now we know where the lyrics of that song originated. It must have been someone who pruned grapes! Stop out and listen to the latest news if you would like to help us prune. We have plenty of extra clippers.
