Research.

In order to produce fine vineyards, one must frequently conduct research in order to learn a variety of local growing techniques.

In May, we visited beautiful Paso Robles and stopped at three vineyards/wineries: Peachy Canyon, Jack Creek, and Chateau Margene. We were lucky enough to be given a personal vineyard tour by the owner of Jack Creek, who showed us the correct way to prune vines. We discussed our own vineyard with him, and he gave us tips and pointers for producing successful growth during this fragile time period. A big thank you to Doug at Jack Creek!







Our "research" purchase.


This weekend we went to Disney's California Adventure, where they have working vineyards and a winery-style restaurant. Although the newly remodeled restaurant won't be open until next week, we were able to see the vineyards. We hope to visit the restaurant next time we are there!
