How are vineyard tags used?
Vineyard tags are used to organize and manage every part of the growing and harvest process. They are commonly applied to rows, blocks, fence posts, harvest bins, and even wine barrels to create clear identification throughout the vineyard.
Numbered tags placed on end posts act as location markers, making it easier for employees and visitors to navigate the vineyard. These identifiers also support daily operations by helping track vine care, monitor growth, and record harvest yields by row or block.
Vineyard tags can also be fully customized to match each operation’s needs. Some vineyards use large, easy-to-read numbers for quick identification, while others include detailed information such as grape varietals, rootstock, clone types, planting year, grafting details, or irrigation methods.
For more advanced tracking, barcodes can be added to follow grapes from the exact row or block where they were grown, through harvest and collection bins, and all the way to the barrels and bottles they become. This level of traceability helps improve accuracy, efficiency, and long-term record keeping across the entire vineyard.
