Purple

A lot is happening this time of the year. The air and sun are getting Fall'ish. The mornings start out just a bit cooler. The daytime shadows are just a bit longer. The sunsets seem to linger just that tiny bit more. The white wine grapes from Willcox are getting close to harvest. The grapes at our vineyard are becoming increasingly purple - that intense black, purple that only grapes become. The yeast and fermentation supplies have arrived from the suppliers. The wine from last year is nearly all in bottles, making room in the winery for the new juice that will come soon enough. Magic.
