Blanc du Bois is all harvested and in the tanks.  We had a great turnout for the harvest!  Everyone had fun and we finished before noon.  Raymond is doing his thing as a  winemaker.  We harvested 4,800  pounds.  We are also going to  purchase additional Blanc du Bois from Fort Bend, Austin and Anderson Counties.  So Haak Winery will have plenty of Blanc du Bois this year.  This will be l00% Texas Wine.  Will let you know when it is  bottled.  This is the vintage that  Michael Lonsford (Wine Critic from the Chronicle) gave a 4 Star rating.  This years' Blanc du Bois will be even  better.
 
Friday, July 13, from 6:30 till we are having Johnny &  Mel perform for a TGIF party on the Patio.

He recorded many singles over the years, including "Statue of A Fool",  "Blue Water", "Hurricane Carla" and "Pounding Heart".  After work on Friday afternoon stop by  the winery and enjoy Johnny & Mel with the Blues, Country, Oldies (You name  it) we'll have plenty of snacks and wine.   Bring your lawn chairs.
