The supplier of our bottling line arrived on Tuesday for a planned preventative maintenance and training visit. We were excited about that because it was the first time since we installed the line 19 years ago that they have come to show us the details about its operation and maintenance. We have gotten pretty good at making it work right, but this training will make us better.
We are returning Macro bins and some other equipment used during harvest to the warehouse. Our first wine of the season is 2024 Iowa Nouveau and we did our blend this week and then started planning for our first bottling of the season. We are planning to taste the wine in all of the barrels over the next week or two.
