Harvest Estimate: Now
Michael and his wife, Janet, are family farmers and a down-home couple who do most of the work on the vineyard themselves, just ask fellow member Fernando Berton! It’s a challenging time for growers and they are very interested in serving the needs of home winemakers. Michael is a 3rd generation farmer with ancestry from the Azores. As a home winemaker himself, admittedly not very good at it though, Michael is extra sensitive to the needs of his fellow wine makers. Ask them about their trademark, “Terrbiance!”.
Bring your family, make a day out of it
.Saúde (cheers), Michael & Janet
