The sort and crush of our Westerly/McGinley Vineyard Rousanne went well with many group members joining via the Crushcam. The fruit looks good and after a 6 hour cold soak we'll be back at the Presscam at 4:00 p.m. PDT today.
Winemaker Michael Zitzlaff reports the fruit tastes very nice with peach, melon and apricot flavors. Since we are making two barrels, we'll innoculate each with separate yeast strains (D47 & QA23) next Tuesday or Wednesday.
