So, we were lucky to again have an opportunity to go tasting at another local winery...Shea. In case you are wondering, our winemaker is new, so she is trying to get around to some different wineries to meet the winemakers and also learn from their best practices. We obviously also benefit in that we have an opportunity to meet and talk with these winemakers and try their wines. This week we spit, no swallowing....which by the way, I am having trouble with, but I need to practice because when you are working you should be spitting! It seems whenever I "spit", either it dribbles down my chin or splashes back out of the cup and onto my glasses. Pretty classy. My roommate recommended practicing in the shower. At Shea we just spit into the drain on the floor, so that was a little easier.....
Shea is a very small operation and they sell a lot of fruit to other vineyards. I've noticed this being a pretty common practice, even though a lot of the wineries still make ultra premium wines from the grapes they are procuring.
