That's a good video, I thought the copper funnel was interesting; they probably don't have any H2S problems.
I thought you all could enjoy the comedy, quite a cast of characters, just a little something to look forward to as crush and press gets closer. Personally, it's all done alone in the kitchen, but it's meticulously clean and I don't put the skins in my mouth and spit them back into the press basket. I usually drink a bottle of a really good cab as I go.
I have ordered Muscat Canelli from California and Traminette from Maryland from Harford Vineyard. The Traminette are special order, so I'll have to wait and see if they have enough to make their own wine and fill my order.

Heather, what is the difference between the Muscat Canelli and the other one they offer, is it better quality? Also, did you order a juice bucket or are you ordering the whole grapes? Just interested because my older brother's wife likes a good muscat.
I don't know why, but I can't get more than 1 second of that video to play. Thought maybe the kids were hogging bandwidth, but I can play any other YouTube video just fine. Anyone else having the same issue?

That's it. You just decided what I'm drinking tonight. (goes downstairs to get his last bottle of Harford Traminette...)
@stickman: that's a great red. Thanks for posting.
I bought a muscat canelli bucket maybe in 2014 and the juice was very nice, sweet and excellent flavor.
I am a fan of that varietal, so hopefully this will turn out well. Did you back-sweeten or leave dry?
I'm sure I did, I just checked my notes from Nov. 2014 and have pretty much nothing written once it went down to 1.040 ...
I used Cotes De Blanc yeast and think I saved some of the juice to use for back sweetening because it was so good...
It was Lodi Gold Muscat Canelli. 6G bucket for $61
Those guys are hilarious.
I imagine that's pretty much what @JohnT 's place is like at pressing.
@4Score and I are doing a ton of Grenache and a ton of Syrah from the same vineyard. They are saying the Grenache is close. Also trying a Chardonnay; 900 lbs with @4Score and @BusaBill
