Pardon the cliche but time really does fly. We can’t believe its been so long and how much has changed since our last post.
Harvest is around the corner. These grapes are at about 19 brix, so in about 3 more weeks they will be ready. In addition to the grapes ripening we have been making so many improvements to the grounds and buildings. We are finally situated in our new building. Early last week we added three more tanks.
Here are some of the 500 barrels in the new building.
“Miramont” is French for view of the mountains. From our winery we have an amazing view of Mount Diablo and the Sierra Nevadas. Dave made this beautiful mural on the floor as you walk through the main entrance of our new building. It is an excellent depiction of Mount Diablo from our property at sunset. Believe or not the colors are spot on. We love our view.
Just last week we had our dusty loading area paved.
Saving the best for last, the most exciting update is the addition of our beloved Sara’s beautiful baby boy. Baby Seeley was born on July 9th and weighed 7 lbs 9 ounces. Baby and mother are healthy and doing well. They are enjoying their time of bonding. We definitely miss Sara around here and can’t wait for her to come back. She thanks everyone for their well wishes and support.
