# Château Monichot > Vineyard located in côtes-de-Bourg near Bordeaux ## Posts - [Veraison](https://chateau-monichot.com/?p=1339): Good news from the Vineyard- Our grapes are reaching one of the final stages before harvest. “Veraison” We can now estimate that the harvest may be mid September for our red wines if we continue with this weather pattern. If you are interested in helping out with the harvest, even for a day contact us and we can arrange it. Good fun, hard physical work, lots of food and wine in the evening !! Bring a tent and stay over. - [Salons](https://chateau-monichot.com/?p=1250): This spring we have been launching our wine at various salons in France. A salon is a concept like an exhibition where the public can come and discover/buy wine direct from the winemaker. In February we went to Le Havre and participated in the salon Aux Vignobles. This salon hosts fine wines and food from regions all over France. We were there for 4 days, and it was very busy. We poured many tastings of our wine. The wines available to taste were Cuvée Phoenix, Cuvée Francois and Les Bulles de Monichot. We had great feedback and met many people […] - [Why Organic?](https://chateau-monichot.com/?p=1083): Our challenges in 2023. This year, the weather has played havoc with our vineyard. Lots of lovely rain (good for growing) and lots of sunshine has led to an unusually humid atmosphere which has not been good for our grapes. Mildew The first signs of mildew developing on the leaves of our vines was back in May. As part of the Organic certification, we are allowed to spray the vines for disease control, but we are controlled in the type of product we can use.  The products can only deter and try to inhibit the development of mildew not to […] - [Féte Le Vin](https://chateau-monichot.com/?p=591): This week starting on Thursday the 22nd June, starts the annual event in the Bordeaux Wine calendar of “Féte Le Vin”.
