4 Winds Winery has been producing high-quality wines for years, with a focus on
sustainable farming practices. Roy Chapin, the owner and winemaker, has always
been dedicated to ensuring the health of his vineyards while maintaining the
delicate balance of water usage. By integrating WiseConn's technology, Roy has
experienced a transformative shift in how he manages his vineyard, from precise
irrigation to real-time environmental monitoring.

Scheduled irrigation and monitoring

WiseConn gives me the ability to monitor and control my irrigation remotely, which is a huge advantage. It’s like having an extra set of eyes on the vineyard, and it’s made managing water and vine health much more efficient.
Project Details:
- Crop Type: Wine Grapes
- Location: Napa, California
- Irrigation System Type: Automated Drip Irrigation
- Need: Advanced control over irrigation scheduling, soil moisture monitoring, and environmental data for optimal grape quality
Project Goals:
- Remote irrigation control for precise water management.
- Real-time data to improve decision-making and vine health.
- Environmental protection from frost, heat, and other risks.
- Sustainable practices to align with regulations and long-term vineyard success.

The feature I value most is the real-time information and the abolity to act quickly. For instance, if a forecast predicts 90s but suddenly temperatures spike in th 100s, I can respond immediately— like turning on misters for cooling. With the app, it’s all done in under 10 minutes.
Results:
- Environmental protection through timely alerts for frost, heat stress, and other risks, safeguarding the vineyard.
- Efficient water use supports sustainable farming practices and helps comply with local water regulations.
- Time savings from streamlined vineyard management, allowing Roy to focus on winemaking.
