Where quality grapes, meet loyal care.

At Dog Days Vineyard Management, we specialize in nurturing exceptional vineyards with a hands-on, locally focused approach. From pruning to harvest, our team is dedicated to growing the highest quality grapes, ensuring each vineyard reaches its full potential.

Great wines are made in the vineyard.

The foundation of every great wine starts long before it reaches the bottle. We believe that great wines not only tell the story of how they are made, but of the place where they are from. Through careful vineyard planning, soil and nutrient management, and diligent canopy management, we help grapes develop complexity, depth and a true sense of place.

Turning Sunlight into Wine

Vineyards are a delicate balance of nature and science, and managing sunlight is key to producing premium grapes. Through precise canopy management — controlling leaf growth, shoot positioning, and fruit exposure — we optimize photosynthesis, ensuring grapes ripen evenly and develop rich flavors. By fine-tuning light and air circulation, we create conditions that enhance grape quality and, ultimately, the wines they produce.

Balance is everything.

In both the vineyard and the glass, balance is essential. We carefully manage crop loads, canopy growth, and nutritional inputs to maintain vine health and achieve the perfect balance between sugar, acidity, and tannins. This meticulous approach not only leads to healthier vines, but also results in wines with depth, structure, and elegance — where every sip reflects the care and balance found in the vineyard.

Vineyard care you can trust.

At Dog Days Vineyard Management, we believe that the best vineyard management is proactive, not reactive. Our team prioritizes regular vineyard scouting to identify potential issues, before they become a costly problem, ensuring healthier vines and more consistent yields. Timely spray applications and preventative care are at the core of our approach, protecting your vineyard from disease and pests, while minimizing unnecessary interventions. With our dependable service and commitment to excellence, you can trust us to keep your vineyard thriving season after season.
