2007 Harvest Report
Well we'll try to get this going for real now.
I "ran into" an old friend from Florida the other day http://twitter.com/jeromepeters and he basically said I should just put some effort into this. Considering the ineptitude of my initial post I have nowhere to go but up.
Harvest 2007 is in the bag. The whites and Rosado are done and ready (almost) for bottling. The reds are all in barrel, dry, and finishing their secondary fermentation. Great quality this year in Tempranillo, Malbec, Viognier, Albarino, Syrah, and Port. How can I complain about the rain and seemingly endless hours during crush when this kind of quality comes out? The answer is: I can't. Now that we've slowed down it's time to start looking for ducks and steelhead and to check my eyelids for leaks.
