We started with a mild thunder. Getting the only 3 barrels of our Pinot pumped into a small tank. Then pumped out a single barrel of a Malbec Port. I have to say the best port I have ever made. Major black raspberry in nose and flavor, damn yummy!!! Than my daughter and our intern from Sonoma St. bottled, corked, labeled and foiled the port. It was another fire cracker hot day in Sonoma Valley. Hitting the 100 degree mark for the 3 day in arrow. Then it was time to open the tasting room for biz. So we broke for the day and will take tomorrow off to do paperwork and get the wine that we bottled to the warehouse in Sonoma. Wednesday we will bottle the Pinot that is melding together. The shared a meal with neighbors!
Well this old man got on his tractor and disked the 2 foot tall weeds down under. The bugs hate it but the soil loves getting back what the weeds take from it. This is my way of giving back. I also noticed that the soil was darker in color than normal and it wasn't from the rains last week. It was from the large amount of turkey manure that I put down last November. So the soil is ready to do its thing and give back to the grape vines what is needed. We also sprayed the vines with a blend of cinnamon, peppermint, thyme, clove and citric acid to stop the threat of mildew on the grape clusters. This is the first time I used these products which have been donated by Monterey Chemical Group for the organics division. We are also testing other products which will be added to the soil to kill some bad bugs that collect in the roots of the grapes. The weather has changed and we are in the late spring warm cycle, about 80 degrees today. Next chore will be the last weed whacking around the vines.
Just a thought on this Mothers Day, HAPPY MOTHERS DAY, to you dads as well! You might want to organize your garage and as my daughter would say, organize your friggin' garage. This system would really help! http://www.gladiatorgw.com

Well the moth of April saw only 4 days of possible freeze and we only lost 6 shoots in the entire vineyard. Last year we lost 40% of the vineyard. So we are all relieved about that as for the rain, it continues today the first day of May! It will most likely be the last rain of the season and we have only sprayed the vineyard once so far for mildew and that was 2 weeks ago. We will be spraying with an organic mixture of Rosemary oil, lemon oil, and more I will post the names of all the different things we will be adding this year! Here is the website of the organic company!
We are putting new procedure into action and have re-evaluated how we do everything from all the crazy ways the government wants us to keep records to how we clean barrels. We have also hired an intern from Sonoma State to assist us in the vineyard and implement all the new methods of madness that we want to do at the winery. I will post more about the going-on's of the new lad.
