ADVERTISING: Advertorial — Wine price inflation round 2

We wrote frequently during 2022 about the surging inflation in the wine industry. For much of the year the price increases were relentless and pretty much across the board for wines from every appellation New World and Old World alike. Through the first half of 2023 things seemed to stabilize. There were still some price increases but they were more moderate in nature and not every bottle that came through the door went up. Even more refreshingly we saw some wine come in down a “tick or two” at the wholesale level. We were relieved, and I’m sure most wine consumers were as well.

ADVERTISING: Advertorial — Harvest 2023 is underway

The 2023 wine grape harvest in the Western US has officially started, and while there are some small challenges, they are small and picking is progressing smoothly so far. This is the time of year when emotions run high, especially for winemakers and grape growers. No matter how good the growing season has been so far this is when much can go wrong. The grapes have gone through verasion making their skins porous to everything from rain water to smoke. Canopy management is also key once we get to September. The urge is to cut back the canopy of leaves that overhang the fruit to spur further ripening with the more angled sunlight late in the summer. It comes with risk though, if you get too aggressive in the cutting of leaves you can leave the bundles of grapes exposed to sun burn and raisining if temperature spike.
