FROM FIELD TO TANKER

Winery emergency? A press on wheels means it can go wherever you need it. It's the perfect solution for press breakdowns, harvest bottlenecks, or adding extra capacity when your facility needs it most.

"We partnered with Integrity Wine Company in 2021 for some field pressing on Monterey County Chardonnay. The receiving winery can only accept macro bins, so rather than go through the hassle of moving bins around and asking the grower to machine-pick into them, we had the grower harvest the field as they normally would. IWC pressed the fruit in the field, and the winery was able to receive tankers of juice first thing in the morning. The whole process definitely helped with logistics."
