Just when you thought we couldn’t get more Well Hung…

We here at Well Hung Vineyard are proud to announce that in 2010, we will bring TWO new wine varieties into the Well Hung family.

Ladies and gentlemen, the 2010 Well Hung Petit Verdot / Merlot blend:

Well Hung Vineyard 2010 Petit Verdot harvest

Er… ok… maybe it isn’t quite done yet, but trust us, it’ll get there (but don’t the grapes look just delectable fresh off the vine?).

Also, farther back in the truck, not pictured above, are some more delicious looking grapes that will go into our (also NEW) 2010 Rose!

So to summarize, the Well Hung Vineyard 2010 line-  Rose, Petit Verdot / Merlot blend, Cabernet Franc, & Chardonnay.  That’s right, our line-up has doubled in size!

Bottoms up!
