The old concrete floor for the tank room is being resurfaced and will get a nice two part epoxy coating. The new floor will really help keep the tank room clean and look beautiful.

Here Ben is digging a trench to hold all the underground electric lines. All the wires running from the utility pole to the side of the barn will be placed underground to give the winery a cleaner appearance.

So many things going on at the winery right now to get ready to open in March 2013. We finally jumped all in and are having the barn finished, equipment bought, driveway and parking lot installed, stone repointed and so many other things. Here are a few photos of the siding going up and the new parkinglot/driveway.

Young Cabernet Franc vines make their way up grow tubes next to the winery. We planted 100 to see how they would grow in the soil we have. The photo was taken mid summer. I really like using the grow tubes. They protect young vines from all kinds of harm until they are well established. They promote growth up the tube.
