Travel a "Green" Route

Are you living a "greener" life these days? GreenRoutes.org gives you a way to incorporate your values into your travels.

Green Routes can help you find green businesses that are rooted in their communities; places to eat where the food is not only fresh from a family farm, but where you might bump into the farmers who grew it; places to have fun while helping to ensure that our natural and cultural resources will be around for many generations to come. It makes it easy to find fun and rich experiences and places.

Take time to explore the back roads and learn about a region from the people who live and work there. Crofut Winery is proud to be recommended by GreenRoutes.org.

Vineyard Growing Update

The early warm spring gave us a quick boost to the growing season. By May 8 the vines had budded out over 2 inches. There was a frost alert for Saturday, May 9 but we sneaked by at 34 degrees that night. Whew!

If the weather continues warm, expect an early harvest! Bloom should be 2 weeks early, so come out the weekend before and the weekend of Memorial Day & smell the subtle perfume of the grapes blooming.

Red wines are taking the oak slow, so expect all of the red wines to be ready by July 4th. River Valley white and Crow's Nest white will be ready to go in June. We'll look forward to seeing you in the vineyard!
