Napa Valley Harvest 2011
The story of the 2011 Napa Valley wine grape harvest as told by wineries throughout the valley.
- November 8th: Napa Valley wraps up harvest. Tim Mondavi says "wine is the beverage of generosity."
- October 28th - November 3rd: As October came to an end, harvest neared completion for many across the valley...And likely not a moment too soon as rain was once again in the forecast for late in the week.
Rain, stay away until 11 am. Schweiger finishes picking this am! #smda #NVHarvest- Our #NVHarvest is complete! See the full album on FB: ow.ly/7gYdH & Thanks to our amazing vineyard crews!
