The Covenant/RED C winemaking team is comprised of Jeff Morgan and associate winemaker Jonathan Hajdu. Because we have a very small production, we can handle most cellar activities on our own throughout much of the year. At harvest, we do need some help though, and the photos below include scenes that feature Jeff and Jonathan as well as a number of friends and colleagues whose assistance is invaluable.
Harvest Napa Valley 2009
Each harvest presents a new challenge. On October 12, the worst harvest storm to hit Napa Valley in 20 years dumped 4 inches of rain in 24 hours! The good news: We beat the rain and now have some fabulous wine in barrels. If 2009 is as good a year as 2008, we will be nothing short of deliriously happy.
For an insider’s peek at our Napa Valley cellar crew (along with helpful friends), take the photo tour here.
Harvest Napa Valley 2008
This was a milestone harvest for Covenant, as we moved our production up to the Napa Valley and we started our new Chardonnay “Lavan” program. These photos show our wonderful friends and colleagues helping us at the winery.
