Riesling Update

Over the weekend Glen and I had to check the Riesling that we are in the process of making.  It has been fermenting for the last two weeks. 

Image

The yeast was very active during the fermentation process.  They set up camp and partied hard. 

Image

Since the yeast was so good at partying, the wine tested excellently.  Now, time to kill the yeast, get the gas out of the wine and get it ready for bottling.

See…..the wine, it was gassy.

Image

Image

This was the reserve bag of riesling, which was as thick as syrup, that we put in so that while the wine clears it also sweetens.

Image

Two more weeks and we should be good to go on bottling.

A Note From Abroad

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sailaway from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” ~ Mark Twain
