| Harvest Update | ||||||
| As of Tuesday October 25th, we have harvested all of our grapes for the 2005 season. We brought in a record total of 33 tons this year, and have been busy monitoring the various stages of fermentation that all of our lots are undergoing. Being a small winery, we have all taken on various roles during this busy time of year. We have been truckers, grape pickers, cluster and berry sorters, caterers, photographers, and everything else that you can imagine. We are very pleased so far with the results of this vintage, and are looking forward to being able to bottle these wines in the upcoming years and share it with our family and friends. |  |

| Fleming Jenkins TV Appearances | ||||||
|
Peggy was featured on NBC’s The TODAY Show on Wednesday October 5th. This segment focused on her triumph over
breast cancer, as well as her dedication to helping find a cure for this disease, including our Victories Rosé
for Research campaign. We apologize to those who tuned in to the Monday October 3rd show, but last minute
scheduling conflicts pushed the air date of our segment to a later date.
On Sunday November 20th at 6:30 PM Fleming Jenkins will be featured in a segment on NBC11’s In Wine Country. In Wine Country is a weekly program in the greater Bay Area which journeys to wineries, restaurants, resorts, homes and gardens from all corners of the wine country. This segment was filmed throughout various periods of the year, and will chronicle the transformation of Fleming Jenkins from just an idea to a fully operational winery. | ||||||
| Victories Rosé | ||||||
| We released our Victories Rosé nearly one month ago, and the personal response that we have received from people across the nation has been very touching. Hearing the stories of triumph over cancer, or of memories of loved ones who lost their battle has made us realize how important it is to do what we can to defeat this disease. For those who have already purchased their Victories, we thank you, and for those who haven’t, we would like to encourage you to do so. Victories Rosé is available across the nation at online retailers www.wine.com and www.klwines.com. |  |
