Harvest season is a truly unique experience. The vines are full, green, and brimming with deep, purple grape bunches. These literal fruits of our labor only come around once a year and mark the beginning of a brand-new vintage for us. The grapes welcome new possibilities in the bottle and create excitement all around the property.

It’s also the time of year we can share this excitement with the community. Our annual Harvest Festival brings together family and friends to pick and stomp grapes just like winemakers of the past. A tradition that dates back to the third century, is still alive at our vineyards.

For centuries, wine has brought communities and families together, and at Messina Hof, we hope our wine can continue to do the same.
