Review of this first day of harvest

22 hectolitres of Sémillon brought in and pressed. It is in the vat cooling down to settle. We will analyse the juice tomorrow. It was a long day. We had to sort through a large number of bunches to eliminate berries affected by rot following attacks by eudemis. And the press (brand new) refused to start. The bunches remained in the press for several hours waiting for a technician to intervene. Yet we had commissioned it just last week! Hopefully there has been no spoilage of the juice in the meantime. Still, the juice tastes good. It should make an interesting petnat to taste.
