The best vineyards also have the best farm kitty cats -- like this one. This mountain lion showed up on our wildlife camera, so we included her in our latest farm newsletter. You can subscribe free to our farm newsletters at KristofFarms.com/subscribe

The couples that make wine and cider together stay together! We're honored to see @nickkristof.bsky.social and Sheryl WuDunn highlighted. www.oregonwinepress.com/article?arti...
We're honored that TWO of our ciders were selected finalists for America's Good Food Awards. Our trees are bowing their boughs in gratitude.
You want to know how wine ends up in the bottle on your table? We just bottled our 2024 Kristof Rosé from Pinot Noir and thought we'd share a behind-the-scenes peek of the bottling process. Enjoy!
"The Case for Cider" on Somm TV -- we approve: www.youtube.com/watch?v=WdmF... . Serious hard cider is a sophisticated drink. It's arguably the only kind of low-alcohol wine that truly succeeds, and, boy, it does!
Who'd have thought: Moldova has more vineyard area per capita than any country in the world. It has three times as much per capita as France.
Happy Chinese New Year!
Our grapes can't vote. But they are so embarrassed by Trump administration bullying of Canada that they would like to hug all Canadians. They're also offering special Valentine amends to anyone who can sing "O Canada." Details: nickkristof.substack.com/p/please-hug...
The Kristof Farms apples and grapes want to make clear that they stand with all local fruit in backing the Seattle Seahawks tonight. Pacific Northwesterners stick together!

Some in MAGAland insult anti-ICE protesters as "wine moms" -- leading @ericasimov.bsky.social to explore the tradition of deriding wine as elitist and snobbish. Not so! Wine is just a drink, and at its best a triumph of civilization: www.nytimes.com/2026/01/21/d... Our grapes stand with wine moms!
Our apple trees are blushing! Two different Kristof Farms ciders (our Orchard Cider and Reserve Cider) are finalists for @goodfoodfdn Good Food Awards! You can enjoy them yourselves at KristofFarms.com -- we deliver by UPS nationwide to your door.

Cracking read from @barmas.bsky.social in Cider Review. We have cideries in Virginia that make both great traditional cider and interesting experimental stuff. Makes for a great cider culture in Virginia.
