Talked to Vadai tonight about barrel schedules. They re enforced my thinking on how long to run the wine in their barrels. Personally I like the taste of a barrel in wine and they told me even with a brand new barrel..... Leave it in for months..... Not weeks! Their trees will have a hard time over oaking wine. I was on a starting schedule of 4 weeks for the first run and 8 weeks on the second....... May have to leave it a little and do more tasting!
