First Crush Final Workshop Sat. 8/21

Greetings Wine Linos!

Brix & Bins

Get out and join First Crush for their last Summer Winemaking workshop at Silver Horse Winery. This is a super cool way to spend a morning in wine country.  You’ll get to go beyond the tasting room to tour the winery and vineyard and find out what’s going on as the growers and winemakers get ready for harvest.  At this three hour workshop, Craig is going to take you on a tour of the winery and talk to you about the equipment we use to process the grapes and let you explore the process from bins to yeast.

Out in the vineyard, Lowell’s going to show you how to use a refractometer and let you actually sugar sample some of the grapes. You’ll also have a chance to taste them and decide for yourself how ripe they are.

You’ll also have the chance to barrel sample their First Crush 2009 wines and discover for yourself what a difference an oak barrel can make.  You’ll top off the day with a tasting of Craig’s Tassajara wines paired with some artisan cheeses.
