Grape harvest looking bountiful at midpoint
A bounty of plump grapes is making its way from the vineyards into tanks and barrels, as the 2012 grape harvest hits the halfway point in Sonoma County.
Weather has been ideal so far, and yields for many varietals have been 15 to 20 percent larger than expected, grape growers said. Pinot noir, a local specialty, is among the most abundant.
The excess grapes arrive after two years of shortages, and at a time when inventories are low and demand is high for California wine.
“Everybody lost their tail last year, and to a point the year before, and this year everyone has a chance to recoup some of that,” said Ned Hill, owner of La Prenda Vineyards Management based in Sonoma. “Everybody wins in a good crop year.”
The main problem facing grape growers and wineries now is figuring out where to put all the fruit, as nearly everything ripens at once.
“The heat last week really put things in gear,” said John Clendenen, owner of Clendenen Vineyard Management in Healdsburg. “The winemakers are bearing the brunt of all this. They’re slammed. Any winery big or small, they’re all struggling, because so many things are getting ripe at the same time.”
In early September, cool temperatures slowed the development of sugars in the grapes, delaying the ripening of pinot noir and chardonnay in the Russian River Valley, said John Balletto, president of Balletto Vineyards and Winery. But then, temperatures heated up, quickening the pace.
“I have not seen a crop of this size ever,” Balletto said. “Everything’s kind of plugged up, so if you don’t have that extra outlet it’s kind of tough.”
