Took a look at our 3 wines today, 30th March am.
Montepulciano Rose looking very clear, sparkling bright. Good flavour, very dry, slightly acidic. We sulphited at 1.5 grams per 20 litres and then added 4 grams of Sugar per litre.
Sangiovese Rose, looking slightly hazy. We sulphited at 1.5 grams per 20 litres and added Bentonite to fine.
Pecorino White, looking slightly hazy. We sulphited at 1.5 grams per 20 litres and added Bentonite to fine.
We also tasted and sampled the white Pecorino from 2011. Really pleasant so bottled most of it into 2 Litre bottles for summer quaffing.

Pruning Spring 2013
Vines pruned again end of March. Same as last year, so 4 buds on montepulciano, 6 buds on Sangiovese, and 8-10 buds on the Pecorino. Helped by Duncan, Judith and Robert, pruning took us about a day and a half.
