9.9.2009 bottling

this photo was actually taken a week or so before bottling. The joy and camraderie presaged the success of bottling and its celebration

We worked hard for days on the harvest of 2009 Bokisch Verdelho and Phillips Farms Malvasia Nera, and then the gods of harvest gave us a great gift—three or four days before bottling, fruit simply stopped ripening. This allowed us to put aside for a moment fruit to harvest and ferment, and, instead, prepare the finished wines calmly and carefully. We filtered some; simply racked and blended others. Everything went very well, all the way up and through the final act. We even finished early.
This is what we bottled on September 9 and released a month afterwards.
