For decades, checking on irrigation at Enterprise Vineyards meant physically going block by block to turn valves on and off by hand. Today, Phil Coturri — organic grower and founder of Enterprise Vineyards in Napa, California — manages that same work from wherever he is.
"Having WiseConn automation is like a dream," Coturri says. "I used to manually turn on and off the valves. Now with automation, it's easy."
For Coturri, good vineyard management is about creating uniformity out of chaos — making sure every plant gets exactly the water it needs, when it needs it. With WiseConn's automated dual drip irrigation system, that precision comes built in. Real-time alerts for frost and heat stress let him protect vines before damage sets in, while remote control over irrigation schedules across multiple blocks means fewer hours in the field and more time spent on decisions that matter.
The result is a vineyard run on data instead of guesswork: soil moisture, climate conditions, and water use all informing healthier vines, better yields, and an operation that fits the sustainable, organic philosophy behind his farming.
It's a simple trade — manual valve checks for a dashboard — but one that's changing how growers like Coturri work every day.
