sends along this information about their ongoing harvest activities:

| Verdelho grapes, Ironstone Vineyards harvest |
“Our Verdelho grapes were harvested on
September 27. Brix at harvest was 25.2, fruit quality is very good with a nice
acid balance and nice mature flavors in the grapes. This is the same field and
specs as the Tempranillo.

We will soon
harvest our Tempranillo, as these grapes are now at 22 brix. We’ve had good
cooperation from the weather, which is currently features 90 degree days and
mid 50's at night. This Tempranillo vineyard was planted in 2005 and in its
third harvest.”
