Hi Al. Yes it has been a while. Did you forget your login or just decide on a new user? If you forgot, I can understand at your advanced age. LOL

Hey Father Al good to see here again. Your winery is really coming along nice. I enjoyed the clip on face book with the Sinatra singer.

 

[Julie]

Al, don't forget "et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti." Good to see you back. It has been a while. What have you been doing?

 

[alfulchino1]

good to see you Rocky! yes i left out the rest...but i figured Dan would google it

you asked: what have i been doing ,...just puttering around and maybe working a bit harder than i should, picking some grapes, making a bottle of wine or two...how about you!

 

[Rocky]

Al, I have been making a lot of wine (about 150-200 gallons per year) and I plan to continue this year. I am going to get about 7 buckets of Chilean in March and my Son-in-Law will get 3 (he is just getting started in winemaking) so that should keep us busy. I can't wait for this cold weather to pass and get back to the yard work. I would rather mow grass than shovel snow!

 

[alfulchino1]

indeed Rocky, it has been a ridiculously snowy february...time for some warmth....a neighbor of ours is from Chile and gave us a bottle of Chilean Syrah that we are looking forward to....what variety are you both making?

 

[Scott]

Hey Al, glad to see ya made the jump over!

When are you going to open that bottle from Chile?? wink wink nudge nudge

 

[alfulchino1]

i know right! i need to plus my daughter in law gave us a ten yr old cab from china that i need to pop ah...so little time!
