The Texas grape harvest is coming to a close for 2026, with the quality of grapes being exceptionally good despite a reduced quantity. Last Spring's late freezes across Texas led to the decrease in quantity. The harvest started and will end early, with favorable weather conditions allowing grapes to ripen and be harvested smoothly.

Kristen Hansen from Torr Na Lochs Vineyards and Winery reported a successful harvest, with 9.5 tons collected so far. The final block of Petite Syrah was to be harvested soon. Further information on the harvest and its implications for Texas wineries can be found in the source publication.
