VASCM: 2013 Grape Crush Report Released: 2nd Consecutive Record Harvest

Fri Feb 14 10:34:55 PST 2014

The CDFA released the 2013 Grape Crush Report on Monday.  You can find 
the complete report here 
<http://www.nass.usda.gov/Statistics_by_State/California/Publications/Grape_Crush/Reports/>on 
the USDA's website; and a summary provided by Turrentine here 
<http://www.wineindustryadvisor.com/2014/02/10/consecutive-record-winegrape-harvest/>. 
This headline indicates (which is no surprise): *Second Consecutive 
Record Winegrape Harvest*.  And continues: "The /Crush Report/ shows 
that the total 2013 California wine grape crop weighed in at 4.23 
million tons.  Similar to 2012, the 2013 growing season was nearly ideal 
throughout the state, allowing for increased yields per acre. " The 
Report will list the details for our region, Region 6 (we are combined 
with Alameda and Contra Costa Counties and the Santa Clara Valley.

By the way, a good source of news concerning the wine industry is 
provided by Wine Industry Network with a free daily digest of news from 
a multitude of sources. I am forwarding you an example here from Monday. 
If you are interested in getting it there should be a link at the 
bottom, but here

it is as well. There is probably more here than you want to know, but 
then again there is probably something occasionally you do want to know. 
In any case, this example will give you an idea. So there you go.

Regards,
