It was rather strange, as the readings I took on the spectrometer ranged from 11% to 15% probable alcohol level! I had no time to do a proper sample though, so I just took readings from a lot of individual grapes. We'll just have to wait and see when we send a bottle to be analyzed.Fabiohttp://vinosambiz.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003799659416268091.post-70914457663809892612010-09-20T23:53:19.206+02:002010-09-20T23:53:19.206+02:00Hi, thanks for commenting.

If it's warm and sunny they should recover the lost 0.4% and maybe more. It it rains again, it'll be bad news and I'll just have to do what they do in France, Germany, Galicia and other rainy wine-producing regions. We'll just have to wait and see. I don't think there's much chance of a disaster; it'll either be just fine or not completely optimum. The weather forecasts are kind of ambiguous for the next week.Fabiohttp://vinosambiz.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003799659416268091.post-55203377729537575872010-09-20T15:41:01.552+02:002010-09-20T15:41:01.552+02:00and what do you plan to do now with the Airén grap...and what do you plan to do now with the Airén grapes? Wait until they build up enough sugar to compensate for the lost 0.4%?<br />And what if it starts raining again?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
