Behind the scenes of our 2026 harvest
Harvest 2026 is officially over. It was one for the books — the earliest start in Tim’s 12 years at Field Recordings. Our take a peek behind our cellar doors and discover our total tonnage, biggest varietals, longest week, and all the other fun facts you can think of.
Our cellar crew made their own wines!
Last harvest, we started an experiment: Our cellar crew members got to flex their individual winemaking skills, each creating a wine that reflected their personal style. We’re incredibly lucky to have such a creative, hardworking team who’s stuck with us for years. So we’re letting them shine. Meet Jack, Hector, and Austin (and their first releases).
Boxed wine: Value, sustainability, and why you should give it a shot
Boxed wine has developed a bit of a bad reputation over the years. The first bag-in-box products to hit the market were more focused on quantity than quality, let’s say. But we’ll admit it: Your aunt might have been onto something with that trusty box of pink wine she kept in the fridge. Today, boxed wine offers real advantages, including longer freshness, better value, and more sustainable packaging. Plus, it’s fun.
Le Bon Climat: The new era of Field Recordings
This fall, we’re honored to release three super-limited bottles from the legendary Le Bon Climat vineyard. The opportunity to work on this historic site has invigorated our efforts to take Field Recordings to the next level, and we think you’ll taste that determination in our end results.
