The Story of a Vintage Begins in the Vineyard
As summer begins to draw to a close in Napa Valley, the vineyards at Sequoia Grove are buzzing with anticipation for Harvest 2025. To give you an inside look at how this year’s fruit is shaping up, we sat down with our Vineyard Manager, Jake Terrell, who shared his perspective on the growing season, the unique challenges of 2025, and what wine lovers can look forward to in the glass.
Before a single grape is picked or a barrel is filled, the story of a vintage is already unfolding. In 2025, that story did not open with bold drama, but with subtle tension. Cool mornings lingered in the fog, the skies moved slowly, and the vineyard seemed to hold its breath.
At Sequoia Grove Winery, we believe that extraordinary wines are not born from ease. They are shaped by seasons that test our patience and deepen our connection to the land. This year’s harvest has been a reflection of that truth, filled with resilience and reverence for nature’s rhythm.
