Harvest Hours, NEW Sample Boxes & Instructions

The grapes are coming, the grapes are coming!

With the filling of bins and arrival of fruit, harvest is here and the days
are getting busier for all of us.  We at Wine Wise Idaho are geared up for
fall and are ready to process your grape and wine samples and answer any
enological questions you may have this season. Or, if you just want to take
  a break to chat, please stop on by to say hi.  Our harvest hours are Monday
  through Saturday, 8am-4pm.

  Given that time flies so fast and scheduling harvest sample pick-up can
  often be the last thing that's on the agenda, we've set up 3 drop boxes for
  sample submission.  One box is located at Sawtooth winery in Nampa, one at
  Koenig Vineyards production winery in Caldwell, and the last outside of the
  Wine Wise Office in Boise (photos and specific drop box location details are
  listed below).

  Sample pick up will be at 10am on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays starting
  on Tuesday, October 4th and continuing through the end of harvest.   You can
  access these boxes on your schedule although we suggest dropping samples off
  after 3pm on the afternoon of the day before pickup to preserve sample
  chemistry.   As always, we guarantee results 24 hours from sample pick-up or
  earlier as sample loads permit.

 *Drop box information: *

  The drop boxes are bright orange, insulated boxes that are emblazoned with
  the words "Sample box" and the Wine Wise logo. Each is secured to the
  premises and a small combination lock secures the samples.  The code for all

 of the boxes is *208*.

  *Instructions for Juice, Grape, and Wine Sample Drop-off*

  1.               Ensure samples are accurately marked with winery and sample
  information using the provided WineWise labels.

  2.               Put samples with secured lids in a Ziploc bag and if
  desired, inside a paper bag taped shut for privacy.

  3.               Place sample package in drop box with ice package for
  additional cooling if needed.

4.               Samples will be picked up at 10am on Tuesdays, Thursdays
  and Saturdays.  Results guaranteed within 24 hours of pick-up time.

  5.               Contact Kat 206.331.8191 or Shauna 208.863.1634 with
  questions, special instructions or to request additional supplies.
