Topped and tasted Friday evening. All wines were sound and tasting
good. The malbec is starting to smooth out and the WA C6 cab is
mellowing in the nutral barrel. We didn't find any ID cab in a
platypus or a 1G carboy so we topped with the clone6. We need to
breakdown a 3G carboy next time.
Bob's American oak barrel is showing a small seap leak at the bottom
of the front head. We sprayed it down with meta, but we need to keep
an eye on it.
The cellar was about 68-70 degrees at the far end. We connected the
dryer hose up to the A/C to try and improve circulation. We should
hook up the return air fan too.
We had some friends (Kurt and Stephanie) over to barrel taste, and
they enjoyed the tour.
