Ready Or Not
Tomorrow is bottling day. I was at the winery until about 6:30 p.m. worrying over the wines, measuring pH, SO2, stuff like that, wondering if everything is ready to go.
We use a mobile bottling line to bottle our stuff. We’re using Mobile Wine Line out of Galt this year and the truck pulled into the parking lot at 4:30. After a couple minutes discussion we figured out where to park it and how to set up the flow for tomorrow.
1000 cases of empty bottles were delivered this afternoon from Demptos Glass Company and the corks from MA Silva were delivered this morning. Last year we ordered enough capsules for our 2004 wines and 2005, so we’re covered there.
I’ve got a crew of severn guys hired for the day tomorrow. They’re supposed to be here at 7:30 a.m.
Overall everything is ready, I think.
