Barbera
	October 21, 2022	22.5	3.00	- g/L	~600	48

For this year, the table includes Barbera for the first time. The table does not include the titratable acids (TA) for the Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Barbera. We ran out of reagents to do this test. The post fermentation will have the TA values. The table also contains approximate values for the weight of the Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Barbera. The approximate weight will be back calculated from the number of gallons at press time.
The table also contains a range of values for the Chardonnay to reflect the values that came from the two stainless steel barrels that the must went in to.
All in all, we feel that with the exception of the Chenin Blanc, our crew brought in very clean grapes with the Auxerrois, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Barbera giving us the best yields so far.
