Sink or swim: Napa Valley Harvest 2009

Date October 30, 2009

Dooms day… Tuesday, October 27th, a day that will forever haunt me. (Insert scary music here) Nah! Just kidding. The only haunting part about jumping into Tank 19 or as they say in the winemaking biz, “tk19″, was what I looked like afterwards.
Ok I admit I did have the guys show me twice how to actually get in that tiny, dark hole. Yes Tom, dropping me in would have made for a better story… haha very funny! But after that I was a natural, naturally slow but nevertheless I dug that petite syrah out shovel by shovel. And with only one fall I think I’ll up the ante next year. That’s right Mike, I’m stepping it up, bring on a challenge, bring on a bigger tank.
