Each spring Pete Beaumont brings in a mobile bottler to bottle his wines, including our Cab Franc. The two tons of grapes we sold him in 2016 produced just under 120 cases of wine. (Pete bottled around 4,000 cases overall this year.)
It's a fun operation, everything clicking along at 60 bottles a minute, about as fast as a person (or at least an amateur) can be expected to keep up without pulling a "Lucille Ball."
Our 2016 vintage, I'm told, has developed nicely. Haven't tasted it yet; I'm looking forward to getting a case as soon as it's over bottle shock.
