While this blog can sometimes go on tangents based on my strange, exploratory moods, it is still a winemaker blog. And it is late September which means HARVEST in the south of France. So here it is, my first obligatory vineyard harvest of 2010.
We’re starting with the Merlot, as usual. It’s all by hand this year because we’re worried about the disparity between maturity levels of the grapes this year.
I’ll be posting about the particularities of this year’s vintage. But for now, just pictures of Merlot being harvested … with a vengeance!!
