2008 Wine

Here is a list of the grapes we are set-up to get this Fall, and which barrels I propose putting them in.  By dropping the dropping the Viognier and Syrah and scaling back our Malbec order from Dennis to a more reasonable level we have enough capacity to take all 2,000 pounds of Roger's cabernet! That will give us enough to do some great Cabernet blends this year and hold over 60G for a Reserve Cabernet.  Yea!
 
Take a quick look at the numbers, volumes and barrels and see if it looks right.
