Halloween winemaking magic at Bruliam Wines

Just in time for Halloween, Kerith Overstreet at Bruliam Wines has a great blog post this week about working with her spooky 2011 harvest (beating it into submission, actually).  Sounds like a challenging year!  She describes the redox chemistry that goes on during the early fermentation process and actually has a graph from her lab!  I first blogged about the magic of winemaking after Kerith's great talk on the subject (here is my post) and even she refers to the process as magic in her latest post (but she also refers to wife swapping, Alanis Morissette, and Hanukkah miracles, so who knows what state of mind she was in as she wrote this).  Anyhow, a very fun, informative read directly from the mysterious front lines of winemaking.  Enjoy it with a glass of good Cabernet, the official wine of the dead.
