Tinto Rey all the way! It’s been an exciting first week of harvest here at Matchbook!
We kicked off the week hand-harvesting Tempranillo grapes for our Tinto Rey Rosé and ended the week hand-harvesting the perfectly golden Verdejo fruit for our Tinto Rey Verdejo.

Did you know the Dunnigan Hills appellation is uniquely suited for grapes, like Verdejo and Tempranillo? These vines thrive in these hills with the warm days and gravelly soil similar to the Mediterranean climate in Spain. As we like to say our Tinto Rey is born in Spain and raised in California.

🔊 THE MOMENT WE’VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR! Kick

🔊 THE MOMENT WE’VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR! Kickoff for the 2022 Harvest Season has arrived!!! 🚜🍇🍷

As the sun rose over the Dunnigan Hills, our team began the season with hand-harvesting grapes from the Tempranillo fields that flank the Matchbook tasting room. Working diligently to collect fruit while avoiding leaves and vine canes, the team rapidly filled bins that were then off-loaded into gondolas for transport.

From one side of the estate to the other, gondolas moved the harvested grapes over to the “crush pad.” Hoisted well into the sky, it was quite a sight to behold as the gondola released the grapes with a cascade into the hopper below.

From there, an auger helps the grapes up an incline that de-juices and de-stems the fruit. The “must,” (crushed grapes,) is pressed until barely any color begins to show. This phase of the wine-making process comes to a rest as the final product is moved into tanks for fermenting. Amazing how these grapes went from vines to the tank all in a matter of hours!!! That’s the beauty of Matchbook’s estate process 😌

*Bonus* It is tradition to kick-off crush with sabering Champagne! See our new lead staff embrace this tradition (or attempt to😂) at the beginning of the video!

Cheers!! To a successful launch into the season!! 😍🍷

The anticipation for harvest is REAL! But we need

The anticipation for harvest is REAL! But we need to make sure our equipment is all sorted (pun intended 😉) to ensure a seamless start to the season. Our vineyard shop team is hard at work this week completing maintenance on the harvesters that will be used for various projects (not only grapes for wine, but olives for oil too!) Stay tuned for harvest kick-off, it won’t be long now! 🤩🍷🍇

Each year, the 28th of July is World Nature Conser

Each year, the 28th of July is World Nature Conservation Day. This day emphasizes the importance of protecting our planet’s natural resources: air, sunlight, soil, minerals, fuels, and water.

Here at Matchbook, we are constantly seeking ways to learn and implement best practices that align with natural conservation. Not only is it what’s best for the environment but working with nature, instead of against it, helps to develop the best tasting wines as well.

Though our commitment to this cause is prevalent in countless ways, today we are proud to share just a few highlights of our conservation efforts around the winery.
