Harvest 09/23/2009

Just completed the harvest of our Pinot Vineyard. Great year, BRIX amd Ph levels excellent, a well balanced must. Fought with vineyard foreman to set a date, told me if not Wednesday then I need to find somebody else to harvest! Just as well we did it then. He's from El Salvador - maybe they like their alcohol levels lower, go figure. Put in the yeast today and away we go!!
Must remember to water the vineyard, guess I kind of stressed it the last few weeks. Production is double from last year - better get at those sales.
