Harvesting our Auxerrois
On Wednesday, in advance of a storm that was heading our way, we harvested our Auxerrois. There were only 14 clusters so the job was an easy one. Here is how it looked in our cooler.
I weighed the bunches and found that the 14 clusters weighed 2.57 pounds.
I covered the bowl with Saran wrap and put it in our basement refrigerator, while I contemplate what I can do with 14 bunches of grapes. My husband took one of the bunches to our local package (aka wine and beer) store and had the owner taste the grapes. He was surprised that the grapes were so small but was so much sweeter than table grapes.
