Today we harvested Chardonnay for MCC. The grapes looked very good and had a good chemical analysis. ph 3.1, TA - 10 Balling 19. We did about 10 tonnes.
Overall I had a great day in the vineyards. Took some 20 samples. Pinotage has an average Balling of 21, Chenin blanc 18, Colombar 17, Sauvignon blanc 16. Full on harvest will probably begin middle next week.
Bins offloaded.
Bins waiting for press to empty
Inside of the press (emptying)
Pressed skins dumped
Grape juice with dry ice (helps prevent Oxidation)
Thats it. I will do a graphical harvest process some time during harvest season.
