Tuesday, November 13, 2012. How to Love Wine. Harvest at Matthiasson is officially over! While much of the country suffered extreme heat and storms, we’ve had some of the best weather in years.

Matthiasson Vineyard: Grafting our Grapes
http://matthiassonvineyard.blogspot.com/2012/05/grafting-our-grapes.html
Friday, May 11, 2012. The first spring after we bought our property, we grafted a small section of the vineyard with the variety Ribolla gialla (an ancient variety brought to California from Fruili, Italy) onto our home vineyard. Ribolla gialla is one of the varieties in our White Wine blend. In 2008 we made a 100% Ribolla gialla from that small planting and it was part of our first Wine Club shipment. This tiny piece of a stick will turn into a grape vine. The results from last year's grafting.

Matthiasson Vineyard: October 2012
http://matthiassonvineyard.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 18, 2012. What’s Cooking in the Garden? I would be a terrible teacher. In my mind, the best teachers present information in a neutral, non-judgmental way. For older kids, good teachers provide both sides of a controversial subject and let the kids arrive at their own conclusions. Getting their hands dirty. Juice was flying everywhere. Everyone finally gave in. Pressing the grapes to extract the juice. The press cake - everyone loves cake, right? Posted by The Matthiassons. Money to get ...

Matthiasson Vineyard: January 2013
http://matthiassonvineyard.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 28, 2013. Now We're REALLY Farmers. A tale that is not for the faint of heart. After years of dreaming of farming, we planted our first fruit orchard (on leased land) in 2004 and harvested our first crop in 2007. We sold the fruit at the Napa Farmers' Market and to local restaurants. In the same year, we moved to our current home vineyard/farm and bought a tractor and some other farming equipment. It was at that moment we started to think we were farmers.until this week. One day old chicks.

Matthiasson Vineyard: RIP George Vare
http://matthiassonvineyard.blogspot.com/2013/04/rip-george-vare.html
Wednesday, April 24, 2013. Our dear friend, George Vare, recently passed away. Many stories (see The Wine Spectator. Have eloquently told the story of the life of George Vare; a story that includes his many achievements, and they were truly remarkable. So we just want to add a bit about the impact George has had on our lives, how much he meant to us, and how much we already miss him. Steve racking the 2005 Red Wine at the "winery". We shared with George in a warehouse in Napa. Thank you Pablo Abuliak for...

Matthiasson Vineyard: Grafting Part 2
http://matthiassonvineyard.blogspot.com/2012/06/grafting-part-2.html
Tuesday, June 12, 2012. One month later and the grafted vines have started to grow and even produce little bunches of grapes. We will pull these off so the vines can put all of their energy into growing. Though the amount of new growth is different on each vine, they were all grafted on the same day. This variety is called Schioppettino. Schioppettino is typically grown in the Friuli region of Italy. We are the only vineyard/winery growing Schioppettino in the US. Posted by The Matthiassons.
