The only other folks I've heard that are willing to let natural yeast sit that long are our friends over at Alpha OmegaMarkhttp://www.uncorkedventures.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1128271396089958050.post-3014436649313504742012-02-02T07:28:33.757-08:002012-02-02T07:28:33.757-08:00I don't know, but I'll take inventory late...I don't know, but I'll take inventory later.<br /><br />We sold some, but not enough to make a profit and certainly not enough to create a second volume and lose even more money... ;)Thomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07322028233207741737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1128271396089958050.post-52656396630454518982012-02-02T07:03:45.826-08:002012-02-02T07:03:45.826-08:00How many do you have still?

Truth be told, after a number of years blogging, I lost faith in the effort. Maybe I'll find the desire soon.<br /><br />The book is a narrative nonfiction that traces the rise and fall of what once was the sixth largest domestic U.S. winery.<br /><br />As for the wines, bottling won't take place until after winter. That's the way I like it--got to get all the CO2 in solution out before bottling, and that's hard to do in cool weather.Thomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07322028233207741737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1128271396089958050.post-51960731572800512082012-01-26T15:04:51.132-08:002012-01-26T15:04:51.132-08:00Hoping you are not out of espresso.

Waiting to hear if your wine is ready to bottle. <br />I took too long a break from my blog and resolved to get back on track: http://vignette-rockinrobin.blogspot.com/ clearing out papers and photos at the same time. And what is the topic of your next book? And when is part 2 of the history chart going to be complete?RockinRobinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16334253351048372838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1128271396089958050.post-77380804070328372002011-12-30T13:23:56.675-08:002011-12-30T13:23:56.675-08:00Oh, dear, I'm late to the party again.

Got to the hotel tired and cranky, ate something and then fell asleep at about 1 pm. <br /><br />When I woke up, the digital clock was at 4:00, outside it was nearly pitch black. I wondered what I would do for the next few hours until the world awakened, now that I slept the rest of that day and into early the following morning; but I had slept only 3 hours.Thomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07322028233207741737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1128271396089958050.post-8896147773146175622011-12-22T07:29:02.133-08:002011-12-22T07:29:02.133-08:00Thomas, I too love the winter solstice because it ...Thomas, I too love the winter solstice because it means the summer solstice is on its way. <br />I remember my first summer in California...I wondered why someone had turned the lights out at 9.30 pm!!!
