Contrary to much harvest PR not every Garage harvest is more perfect than the last. 2022 had its challenges.
In 2022 we picked smaller sectors on the farms with greater precision. For 3-4 years now we have had our own picking team for harvest, but this year more than ever we were able to do is break down the pieces of each farm and pick piece by piece. It will make for crispy Rosé, bright whites, and brooding ethereal Cariñenas including two from new sites. Stay tuned!
