4 tons of Garys' Vineyard grapes

These grapes arrived by refrigerated truck about an hour ago. We will process them today, which involves sorting, crushing/destemming, adding enzymes, adding sulfur, and adding dry ice. The must is put into Macro Plastics T-Bins (you can see these stacked in the background) where it will cold soak for a few days. After the cold soak, we will innoculate with yeast for fermentation.
