Harvest officially comes to a close in the cellar with the last barrel down. Ricardo, a 20 year veteran at the estate, gets the pleasure of putting down the last lot of the ‘21 vintage. He gets immense credit for helping navigate the vineyard in a difficult drought and low yielding year. We are happy to accompany this milestone with rain, a full reservoir, and 🌈. Now at last the vines can exhale and rest for the winter months. ♾
Still my favorite #winelabel - a message that many of can use in our lives. SLOW down and read. Also a fantastic wine by @eladiopineiro_froredecarme “I envy the Slowness that broadens everything. I love Nature and it’s best kept secret: Patience. I adore craftwork because it is slow and meticulous. Slow your pace, live in a deeper way, nourish your spirit and stay away from the evil of speed.” 👈
Harvest is over! At least out in the vineyard. We finished last week with the usual suspect - block 1. Our oldest vines always take their time. Extremely light crop of #cabernet in #mendocinocounty , especially on older Cabernet hillside vineyards (sound familiar?). Anyway, still fun. Also had wildlife eat more than usual (drought?)… this little avian fellow even wanted to eat it going into the destemmer. The #pinotnoir is pressed out and tasting fantastic. Perhaps my best vintage yet. Always fun to dig it out and find intact whole clusters. Last picture was after a little foot treading on the #syrah … the color just followed me around the cellar. Join the club if you ever want to taste it. Very little of it. #Out
