Navarro's Night Harvest
September 22, 3:56 A.M.
Gewürztraminer from "East Hill."
46°F and falling.
Navarro's crew has been picking since 2 am and will continue until 10 am.
Picking under 60°F reduces the effect of oxidizing enzymes.
Cooler grapes make better wine; fresher flavors and less bitterness.
A generator-powered light illuminates several rows. Pickers also use LED headlamps.
"Deleafers" work ahead of the pickers, stripping leaves around the grapes.
Two tractors work in rotation to bring just-picked grapes to the winery.
A crew sorts out leaves, green grapes and other debris from the harvested crop.
The crew leaders pass buckets back and forth so pickers can stay in their row.
