We met at 7pm and topped the wines. All looks good. The wood barrels were down quite a bit, some more than a bottle. We should keep an eye on them for the next topping session. We also racked the Wa. Malbec over copper to rid the last of the sulpher smell. We are still keeping the Idaho and Wa. Malbecs separate when topping until we are sure the sulpher is gone. Ray used a tank cleaning wand built for RVs to clean the Wa. Malbec barrel. WOW does it work great for getting out the clumps and scab.
Troy brought an 04 Malbec made by the wonderful Riverwoods Wineries. Really Good!!! The Tempernillo? we tasted that Mike brought is on sale at Ericksons for 6.99. That's it. Happy Days. Mike
