We’re still recovering from a massive press party, in which 20 or 30 of our friends and neighbors helped press out two bins of Syrah. Things got off to a slow start (as they do) and went on late into the night. We’ll need to improve the lighting out on the press pad if late-night pressing becomes the norm. Our neighbors’ kids proved the most enthusiastic pressers, while the adults mostly supervised over beer and pizza. Speaking of pizza, Jen made a record sixteen pizzas, followed by a late dinner of ribs braised in barbecue sauce, with cilantro slaw on the side. Now that’s the way to press.
