  1. Just finished spraying - 1.30am start which is a bit crap but the wind didn't stop until then. Bottling 08 Res. Merlot and 08 Shiraz today.
  2. Tractor and sprayer all set-up - just need this wind to take a rest. Could be a late one...
  3. Fantastic day out there, no clouds in our blue sky. Top of mid 20'sC so a good day to get into the vines (again) ... all looks great still.
  4. @Capitalwines The wine has arrived! Looks very flash - have put it in the tasting room awaiting its fate. Thanks Jen :-)
  5. @catballoon Move to an ah-so, it'll impress the punter and save your fingers! Crikey, hope nothing serious comes of it. Cheers
  6. RT @catballoon: no vines this morning. Off to the doctor for xrays. *What are you up to? Stop drinking and jumping off tables silly!
  7. Lovely morning out there. Email from France, 2010 vintage in St Emilion teed up, so I'd better sort out our 2010 vintage first. Vines ahoy..
  8. Sensational day out - cricket could be a close one, so will take radio out with me today.
  9. @GreedySheep Time for a break from vines ... are you up for a visit? Must see the mighty Malbec (& Elderberry and Vodka sounds tempting)...
  10. @catballoon Rose is what you make when you can't make something else ;-) I begrudgingly drink it because a) wifey likes it & b) it's alright
  11. @GreedySheep There's an element of genuine worry, when someone gets keen on elderberry and vodka ... is Bridget home you old lush?
  12. RT @Capitalwines: Have a looksy at our Kyeema Reserve Merlot review BIG :) http://bit.ly/8P2PGk *Looks exciting, I like the word "elegant":)
  13. @catballoon the GS rose tastes like strawberries, thus I refer to it as the "Wimbledon of the south west". Begrudgingly nice rose ;-)
  14. Crikey it's windy today - lost my hat three times and I hate chasing the damn thing amongst the vines. Viognier Done & Dusted. huzzzah....
  15. @bigredwinebook So as to save time, we're pretty consistent year to year, so a couple of 94's should be good thanks ;-) Cheers
  16. @GreedySheep We've got 5 olive trees - they're loaded. Picked up 3 Avos from Manji and planted them out in the back yard - regular orchard..
  17. Off to the vines, so much growth this year. Looks like some weather coming in as well, a little grey to the west and windy ...
  18. Work seems to build up not go away ... had an hour diggin' holes yesterday, very "The Castle" (and it was in the back yard too).
  19. @robertjoseph How odd - I'd find it hard to believe the Beauj Nouveau could NOT afford to support a market initiative. Shooting one's foot.
  20. Back from Busselton, full of Ironmen and ladies. Feels like you're walking amongst a pack of underfed whippets...
