The UPS site still hasn't updated yet this AM. It has one more hop up to Santa fe which it looks like it left ABQ last night. so it should have been in Santa fe about an hour later.

It should flip over to show out for delivery hopefully real soon.

Got it delivered safe and sound around 1:00PM!

Now to figure out what to serve with this bad boy!

 

[AlFulchino]

heck...you dont even need to do that..it will stand by itself as well

glad it made it safely to you...today we finally got our *professional* shipping supplies so we wont be doing anymore of those home made shipping packages...thank you for giving my wine a shot along w several others..and also glad it made it safely to you

 

[ibglowin]

Always happy to help out a fellow vintner!

Are you out of Cenare yet?

 

[AlFulchino]

not yet....thats the one i made my bet on...i should have enough for awhile

 

[ibglowin]

Sounds good!

So this was bottled in 2010 when was it crushed/fermented?

 

[AlFulchino]

bottled early this year...crush fermented last fall and that does have an impact....there will be a residual note of sweetness when it is young ( a good quality) as it ages it changes and the notes merge...i can tell you this if i have not already ( i dont remember, my days and moments run together)

if you dont finish the bottle at the first sitting then put on your dining room table and come back one week and and also two weeks later..and taste....in a way it simulates what the aging in the bottle will be like

its an honor to have to taste it...and even more an honor for you and others to take the chance on me

 

[ibglowin]

It's back.......

Woke up this AM to 3-4 more inches of the white stuff. Looks like that pic in the first post of this thread. Supposed to hang around most of today and then move on out and then warm back up. It was really nice Tue-Thur around these parts. Had the top down on the short drive home from work in the PM.

I think I may need to pick up some more wood pellets if this keeps up!

Same here, yesterday we had 60 degrees and this morning I awoke to 23 degrees and 5 in of blowing snow.

76 and sunny today for us.
Oh, joy more yard work on the agenda. I think I'll bottle some wine and stay out of the way.
