Selling Grapes




More importantly we harvested 1.25 ton of Chard and delivered to our friends Dennis & Nancy Parr of Camas Cove Cellars here in Moses Lake  They'll blend it with their Roussanne grapes to make their very popular "Thelma & Louise" wine. 

Beautiful fruit.

April and I picked, crushed and pressed enough Chardonnay for about 20 gal (100 bottles) of wine. Brix at 24, acids around .75, should be a little more full-bodied than last year's inaugural vintage.

The garage is smelling nice and yeasty right now.
