Late harvest finally underway in Santa Cruz Mountains
Ryan Beauregard, winemaker for Beauregard Vineyards in Santa Cruz, posted an excerpt from the excellent book, “Late Harvest: Wine History of the Santa Cruz Mountains,” written in 1983 by Michael Holland, on Facebook as he picked Coast Grade and Ben Lomond Ranch pinot noir last week, a full month later than last year. He noted that the book referred to 1982 thusly: “This season is a normal ripening season.”
