finally labeled the 2022's ...

I've been lazy. I bottle the last of the 2022 wines in late November, and have been sporadically labeling & capsuling the wines. I finally got off my duff and finished it today.



From left to right:

Tempranillo

Tempranillo blended with 5% Rhone Blend; we tested the blends and liked both the straight Tempranillo and a slight blend, so we bottled both

Merlot/Tempranillo, which was a FWK Tavola Merlot kit fermented with the Tempranillo pomace

Grenache; the plan was to blend with the Rhone blend to make a southern Rhone, but we liked the Grenache as a solo wine

Melange de style Rhone; 25% Rhone blend in the Grenache

Merlot/Grenache, which was a FWK Tavola Merlot kit fermented with the Grenache pomace

The Rhone Blend is 1 lug each Mourvede, Syrah, and Petite Sirah.

do you create any white blends?

not usually. I don't make a lot of white and tend to stick to varietals. I've purchased white kits that were blends.
