Pressing Chambourcin

A late night down at the winery, Shannon and I were pressing off the Chambourcin cap. Things went pretty well, although it would have been REAL nice to have had the crush pad in place, rather than doing it in the gravel. But, next year will be a different story. Got started about 5:15 and it took a few hours (3 pressings) and I had all the equipment disassembled and cleaned up by 9:15. Felt pretty good about the project, but definitely learned a few lessons that will come in very handy for the upcoming Cabernet Franc production. Many thanks to the Fedors for lending us their bladder press!!!
