Filtering With Old and New Technology


         We are just finishing our final sterile filtration and preparation before we bottle all of our 2013 white wines and our 2012 reds.  In the first picture, Chris and Tom Work to filter the peach, strawberry and late harvest Vidal using our 10 x 10 inch pad filter.  We were able to sterile filter 400 gallons in one day.  At the same time, Brenden brought his Crossflow filter and did more than 3000 gallons in 2 - 12 hour days.  We are now prepared to bottle tomorrow.  Unfortunately it also looks like we will have to contend with a snowstorm while we are bottling.  We are just hoping everything goes as planned so that we can begin our countdown to our grand re-opening on March 15!  In just a few days I will also finalize our Summer music schedule.  It is going to be a great Summer if it ever gets here.
