Processing plan
The sooner your fruit details are visible, the easier it is to protect tank space and cellar timing.
Fruit intake
Share fruit source, expected tons, harvest contact, delivery window, and whether grapes arrive hand-picked, machine-picked, chilled, or field-warm.
Crush or press path
Red lots may need crush, destem, fermentation, and press scheduling. White and rosé lots often need faster pressing, settling, and cooler handling.
Fermentation plan
Define vessel needs, yeast and nutrient assumptions, temperature goals, cap management, lab checks, and who approves production decisions during harvest.
Post-ferment cellar work
Plan rackings, aging, stability, topping, storage, bottling coordination, and whether the wine supports a grower label, winery overflow need, or private-label program.
What to prepare
Send the practical crush-pad facts first.
Perfect numbers can come later. For the first capacity screen, send your current tonnage range, varietals, pick window, fruit status, processing needs, and target release goal. That is enough to identify obvious fit, constraints, and next questions.
