A Weekend in the Winery!

We have been working away in the winery racking and filtering the wine.  All the tanks are coming along very nicely and I know we are going to have some great wines ready this summer!  Here are a few pictures and videos from our weekends working in the winery.

Crystals and sediment that form during fermentation of red wine.  This is why we "rack" it into a new tank to separate it from all this stuff!

Racking white wine into a new tank.

Sediment from the yeast during the fermentation that has settled to the bottom of the tank.

Filtering the wine is important for the clarity and does not result in a loss of quality.

Thank you for your interest in Timber Hill Winery and stay tuned for more updates!
