Harvest 2024

Looks like a really clean batch of fruit should make some great wine

Did some Brix testing in the vineyard today.

Brix - Itasca 18

Petite Pearl 10-11

Marquette 16-17

Frontenac 15-16

Still have a couple weeks of decent weather, so I hope it makes it to 20. Little disappointed in PP. It always seems to lag.

Picked about 66lbs of Tempranillo last night. 2 buckets of grapes usually gives me just enough grapes for a 1 bucket ferment. Brix after destemming and crushing was 24.5 PH was 3.4

Hopefully I'll get another 2 buckets tonight and 2 more on Friday.

Picked another 61 lbs last night 24 brix 3.6 PH. Am I the only one who doesn't trust their PH meter? Pictures would be about identical to above...

66 lb batch fermenting nicely, 61 lb batch ready to go.



I'll pick the remaining Tempranillos tonight or tomorrow. A couple of the Malbecs might be ready on Sunday.
