Pressed the RiverRock Clone-6 Cab tonight, got about 25G without pressing too hard. Cap was soggy and ready. Wine tastes wonderful already. It picked up good skins flavor and tannins, but there is loads of fruit there too. It is going into a new recooped 20G French barrel next week, and will be spectacular!
Also transfered the 15G of Wood River cab from stainless into Lee's 15G French barrel, which is smelling much better after being treated.
Next we need to start racking the wines off the Gross Lees to get rid of those dead yeast cells. We will do the Merlot #1 and Syrah first.
