Supply chain issues have led to shortages of two important staples for North Bay winemakers — oak barrels and bottles.
"For us, our business, it’s critical to get our barrels here in time for our clients because harvest starts and Mother Nature doesn’t wait for anybody," said Ron Angold with Barrel Associates International.
Angold said a bottleneck at the Port of Oakland is preventing vendors from delivering oak barrels to winemakers. He estimates 30,000 barrels are sitting on ships. "The ships that these containers are on are coming through Long Beach," Angold said."They're getting through Long Beach and LA pretty quickly, but then there’s no room at the port, so they're drifting out in the Pacific, waiting sometimes three to four weeks before they can get an appointment into the port."
