During this time, new grapes are beginning to form and the staffs at most wineries have plenty of time to provide you with excellent service and explain the wine-making process. If you show up during the fall, everyone working at the wineries is busy collecting, crushing, and fermenting grapes. So, you can expect the staff to be a little preoccupied. Weather-wise, late spring and early summer are quite nice.
