Rosé on a Mobile Bottling Line, January 2026

Our 2025 Rogue Valley Rosé was bottled on a mobile bottling truck in Oregon’s Rogue Valley. The run was scheduled for January 20 to 22, 2026, and our clips are from the morning of January 21.

The wine is Dijon 115 from Block 1B of our Eagle Point vineyard, picked by hand the previous September.

Set-up

The truck was calibrated the night before, and we got photos of the label placement: a label about 95 mm tall, set 25 to 26 mm above the base of the bottle. The bottle is flint (clear) Burgundy glass with a screwcap, and liquid nitrogen went into the line. We planned for 1,274 cases.

On the line

In the clips, rosé fills clear bottles under the rotary filler, and gloved hands set gold screwcaps on the bottles before they pass under the capping heads. A hand presses our rose label onto a white case, and labeled cases ride a roller conveyor from the bottling trailer into the cellar.

On January 30, a truck took 20 pallets of the rosé to our warehouse.
