Doing the tests

I've started the tests on the grapes. They are getting there slowly :-) Take a peek into my refractometer This is the sugar (measured in Brix) for the Gewürztraminer. 2 more weeks to picking. The pH is dropping fast but still within good parameters. If need be, Paul said he'll blend it with some Chardonnay to give more acidity but due to our climate down here, we never had problem with acidity. If anything, it used to be way too acidic then not enough :-)
We are very proud parents this week!!!! :-))) Eszter was nominated for the biggest award in her industry and Janos signed the papers with Rachel for their very own first house :-)

Yaaay thanks mum! Lots of good things happening isn't there.

Hopefully we'll be doing some picking when I come down in a couple of weeks.
