Erwin and I both entered the 2011 MV Syrah into the fair. Erwin got a double gold, and I got a double gold, plus Best of Class!
We also both entered the 2011 MV Zinfandel into the fair. Erwin got a silver, and I got a gold, plus Best of Class!
Can’t ask for much better results than that. Except maybe win the sweepstakes award!

Posted in 2013 MV Syrah on Thursday, September 12th, 2013 by adminChecked the numbers this morning:
- Alban Syrah, near the sheds
- 22.5 Brix
- 3.1 pH
- 470 Syrah
- 22.0 Brix
- 3.0 pH
We want to pick at less than 24 brix, so it looks like 1 to 2 weeks more for normal weather. Need to keep an eye on the heat…
