preparing for Harvest

Quick update on the latest at Harbinger.

Just finished racking all our 09 reds to new barrels this last week...getting ready for the upcoming and late harvest. Yes, it's a late harvest this year. Gives us more time to prepare. In theory!

And check out our revamped website. www.harbingerwinery.com. Still a few tweaks to make but we are enjoying our new look!

Fall Passport and Harvest Pics

Harbinger had a fair turnout for the Passport Weekend. We here were representing Southern France, the Rhone to be specific.

We released our reserve Cuvee' (a bordeaux blend with a rhone twist), which has already won a silver medal at the Tri Cities Wine Festival. And we released our Cranberry bliss, just in time for the holidays! Everyone had a great time.

Photos are one of the passport event; one of the winemaker's Mom...helping at harvest...when you come on a harvest trip, be prepared to get your hands sticky!
