The end of the white's harvest

We finished harvesting our white grapes at the end of last Tuesday afternoon. It’s always a great pleasure for us to see our loyal pickers again and spend some pleasant time with them.
The quality of the grapes is magnificent this year and the balance of the must is superb. Tasting the first juices has given us a glimpse of a very fine wine with very intense and complex aromas.
The alcoholic fermentation is progressing very well and we will probably be able to taste the first wine at the end of the week. We can’t wait! …
Meanwhile, our red grapes are quietly continuing their ripening process. We are carefully monitoring our earliest plots with an increase in the amount of checks on their maturity, and the tasting sessions for the grapes on these plots are getting longer. These are moments of so much wondering, teamwork and drive…
We are all dreaming of the prospect of another great vintage to follow 2015!
