2011 Harvest!? Get back to me in December. Oh, alright, I guess I can share a little. It's been a cold, wet year and we are behind even last year (which was the coldest year on record), but we still have two months of possible growing conditions. So, hopefully like last year, a nice long warm Fall will help ripen the fruit and we will see the same great flavor complexities of 2010 with lower alcohol levels (I was just barrel sampling some 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon, WOW!!!). Now some more important information.
Labor Day weekend is fast approaching, and I know many of you are going camping. Most of you probably were not great boy scouts, and even if you were, that time is fading in the rear-view mirror. You remember to pack all of the essentials, wine, wine glasses and maybe some food or a tent. But you forgot the wine opener! Now, you are in the middle of no-where, with your sister and her family and the outlook of nothing but Kool-Aid and hotdogs to tide you over until your return to being a desk jockey on Tuesday. Have no fear, I'm here to help. You see that tree over there? No, not the one little Billy is peeing behind, the other one. That my friend is your salvation. Watch the video, understand and send a thank-you on your coffee break Tuesday.
can you really do that?
