(PressDemocrat) - This time of year, as the grapes ripen on the vine, home winemakers join the fervor of the season, the madcap crush. But for them, the season's pace is pro-rated. “Harvest on this scale is very manageable,” said Brian Tuller, who makes wine in his Santa Rosa garage. "It's typically scheduled around a weekend or two with some early mornings or late nights. Occasionally, a day or two of vacation is needed to prepare or most importantly to clean up. After all, harvest is a messy, sticky job.”
