Picked up our fresh California grapes this morning and went straight to work crushing and pressing them. Two lugs (72lbs) of Cabernet Sauvignon and 1 lug (36lbs) of Merlot were picked up from Washington Winemakers and mechanically crushed/destemmed on site. Back home we went to work pressing the grapes to get a beautiful rose-color. It will be a few months until the wine is ready to drink, but after some "lessons learned" from Harvest Fest, we have high hopes for this batch!!
