Sunday was such an amazing day! It started out a bit cloudy which was such a relief. We started picking right away with Peter, my mom, Matt and I, then it seemed as if all morning people kept arriving. Serge, Nick and Jack, Sophie, Benedikt, Leonore and Gaspard...they just kept coming. I think at one point we must have had 30 people out there and it was so much fun. Kids were running around and riding on the tractor, buckets were being filled, cases were being loaded, and before we knew it, we had finished the 1-hectare vineyard we were picking! What a great feeling! Then we went up to the next vineyard, which is the Syrah vineyard owned by our friends Peter and Lucy. We got a good start on it, and then realized that we were all pooped, so we stopped knowing that we would definitely be able to finish it on Monday.
