The above photo shows a couple of our first private Barrel Club members. Each member has been here either helping with the harvest of these grapes or pitching in with the winemaking tasks. The 2006 Merlot is close to completing its time in oak, while the 2007 Pinot Noir is just getting started with its oak aging.
Each barrel club member is encouraged to participate in as many aspects of winemaking as they can. The next step for each of these members is sampling the wine and determining when they want to bottle, if they want to blend, and how they want to label their bottles. While the barrels here are for individuals, the program is also ideal for families, organizations, or even coworkers who share the same interest in making wine.
