Well, I’m happy to say that my prediction for the end of good weather was dead wrong – we’ve had a week of the most beautiful fall imagineable, with bright sunshine and temperatures edging up towards 70 – and I’m happy to enjoy every single moment of it.

Crush is winding down to a close – Kelley will have everything drained and pressed and in barrel by Thursday, it looks like. Then we have one whole day to turn the winery from a production facility into a dining facility for 80 for our La Paulée dinner Saturday night! I have every confidence that Kelley, Samuel and JJ, along with Kelly Karr and Emily will once again work their magic and make us shine by the weekend. Please join us for the La Paulée Open House 11-4 this Saturday in our tasting room- we’ll have abunch of the new 05 Burgs open and it’s your first chance to taste and buy futures on the 06 Scott Paul Audrey & La Paulée Pinots… I leave two weeks from today for my November Burgundy trip, and I’ve just realized I haven’t come to terms with the fact it is actually just two scant weeks away. Yikes! I suppose I need to get ready, non?
