As we do every year around Christmas time – we bet back and pick out our “ Top 10 Favorite   Photos ” taken at the farm throughout the twelvemonth . Some are selected for the beautiful colors that mother nature provide through all four seasons   – while others – like the exposure of our first grapes to ever appear in our little vineyard   – are simply selected because of their personal meaning .

We would also like to take this time to like everyone a Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year !

And with that – here are our top 10 photos – we hope you savor !
