After a five month hiatus we are bottling again. Life at the winery seems to be divided into winemaking and bottling. The bottling equipment has been dormant for all these months and , of course, the first day everything that can go wrong, goes wrong.
Despite this lack of co-operation we managed to maintain our schedule. These were small lots of 2005 red wines — The vineyard designated Lafond Winery wines and other small vineyard designated wines which were kept in barrels over the harvest season. Wines which will not be released for at least a year.
Photos show bottle filling and bottles with their capsules on the way to the capsule spinner and labeller. For a bottling video go to Videos tab above.
