Syrah Crush and Kitten Relocation
This weekend we crushed 2 tons of Syrah, which when pressed, will translate into about 3 barrels of wine. Bob was here and he was a HUGE help...both with muscle and creative ideas.
The new forklift came in very handy for moving the picking bins near the destemmer/crusher, where the grapes were crushed and are now beginning the first stages of the fermentation process.
The fruit had some really great flavor. It's always fun to see how the product changes and ages out over time. This should be a good one!
The 'kitty cottage' was relocated to make more room in the crush area. The kitties are happy in their new spot!

Thanks so much Dalene!
Hi Jill and Andrew,
Your website looks fabulous. I look forward to seeing your remodel and tasting some of your delicious wine. I've had a Tempranillo (spelling?) and can't wait to try yours. The kitties sure look cozy.

Thanks Angela, we can't wait to have you here for tasting too. It won't be long before we are officially open, but come by and see us any time. You can see how everything is progressing and cuddle a kitty!
