Come Get Your Holiday Passports!

We just started a new program in the tasting room called the Holiday Passport. It is a fantastic deal we are doing with Kluge Vineyards & Jefferson Vineyards. It is $10 for the tasting card and then you get free tastings at all 3 of the vineyards! Also, each of the vineyards is offering 15% off one of their select bottles. So if you are planning on doing tastings in all three of those tasting rooms, it is worth it!

As for our wine, the Norton and the Chambourcin are just about done and we have plans to press off the wines early this week. In order to get ready for the final press we had to prep the empty barrels. First we pressure washed the barrels to make sure that they were squeaky clean. Then we filled the barrels with water which causes them to swell up. This fills in any small cracks in the barrels and reduces loss of our precious cargo (the wines)!
