Syrah will be in the mix for next year too!
Category: Winemaking Resources
I've just locked in another 350 pounds of Syrah from Bennett Valley. So, lined up we've got Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah both from Bennett Valley and Zinfandel from Sonoma's Dry Creek Valley.
I'm still hoping to make a Malbec and maybe even a white to be determined but that depends if I can find a good source and can figure out the logistics. Now that I'm going to mix in new barrels to the process this year, plus increasing productions... (my wife is already rolling her eyes)... it's a container management issue.
In the next couple weeks, I'll be working on articles with growers, coopers and more winemakers. Lots of site updates in the works for June too -- hence the quiet nature these days.
