What R you doing today?

I am about 50 miles from Walkers so its only an hour drive making it worth while. Today I am rinsing out bottles. We had a wine fest a week ago and I was able to pick up 28 cases of bottles for 2 bucks a case. Rinsing them out today and seperating by color. I will remove labels and clean as I need them. Getting the bottles from this one paticular winery the labels are not real awful to try and remove like some are.

Exactly how do you remove the labels?

Missed a turn on what was supposed to be a 6 mile run this morning. Ended up being a 6.5 mile run, plus a 1+ mile walk. Labeled and foiled 4.5 cases of 2016 Zinfandel-based blend. After lunch and a short nap, I did some tidying in the winery and racked 11 gallons of 2018 Carmenere/Petite Verdot blend from Chile. It has been absolutely pouring all afternoon - the sump pump is running and it NEVER runs. Our deck is in the process of being refurbished, so we have a lot of lumber in the back yard. Think I'll go out and build an ark...

Sadly, all this rain has come in the course of about 8 hours. Sump pump kicking every 5 seconds or so now. And it looks like we still have another 2 hours of heavy stuff.

Bottling day for the 2016 Montsant Merlot, bottled, corked, cleaned, capsules and labeled two carboys worth. Ended up with 62 each 750 ml bottles, one 375, and a full grown glass for the winemaker.

Today, I’m in the land of bourbon, and noticing that the App really likes the picture of the girl in a bikini walking her horse. It’s still the one that shows on the feed.

I would like to wish everyone a Happy National Wine and Cheese Day. Guess what I'm going to be doing.

I think I had too many onions over the past few meals, so I've only been cutting the cheese, not eating any.

Headed out to watch the minor league Potomac Nationals. After the game: fireworks, then we get to camp in the outfield!!

Spent the day packing the van, cleaning the house, spraying the grapes and garden, and getting ready for whiskey night.
Tomorrow at 4am we leave for a week at the cottage.

Marking rows for next years planting so that I can start the soil preparation process. I like to be ready come spring and it gives time for any soil amendments to 'equalize' any soil shortcomings. Plus the weeds/grass has to go.

Doing this sort of stuff all week.
