Harvest is nearly in the books, football is back, and that means it’s time for our annual Harvest Playbook: Juice & Jerseys.Keith is calling 2026 a record harvest—and says the vintage reminds him more of 2015 than any other year. So we open the same 2015 Vineyard 29 we poured on last year’s Harvest Playbook and find out why.From the challenges, surprises and audibles of harvest to the early storylines of the NFL season, Keith and Mason compare notes on what happens when the season you planned for isn’t quite the season you get. Mason gives his early NFL report and predictions, Keith gives us his way-too-early take on the 2026 vintage, and we ask them both: Does experience make you better at adjusting—or just more comfortable when things don’t go according to plan?The grapes are coming in. The games are on. Juice & Jerseys is back.Join our Cru.
