Driving by a vineyard in November, I noticed grapes still hanging – under netting. Didn’t wineries already harvest their grapes by then?

Yes, harvest has ended for traditional wines. The grapes still seen on the vine are most likely sweetening up to create what wineries call “late-harvest” wines. These wines, aptly named because of the delayed harvest, are typically rich with flavors of honey and often, tropical aromas. Waiting for these delicious grapes to further ripen on the vine is a risky proposition – the birds and deer love the grapes even more the sweeter they get!
