Bottling

21 May

A few weeks ago David, Clare, Tim, Louise, and I helped Dad bottle some port.

Louise and I ended up with the least interesting job: putting bottles in boxes and stacking them. Clare filled the bottles, Tim corked them, Dad labelled them, and David heat-shrunk wrapping to the bottle tops. I was surprised by just how much port was in a barrel – we filled 64 cases with 350 mL bottles. There are more photos of our bottling effort here.
