I have been waiting on
some photos off a mate who also did vintage at Tahbilk but he is being lazy
and hasn’t had a chance to send them so I might have to post them later.
The last few weeks of
work slowed down a bit and we went from 12 hour days to 10 hour days, which
doesn’t sound like much but boy does it make a difference!
More time for
drinking…
which always leads
to someone passing out in the boat?!
and funny
moustaches
I have to say,
although the work was so new for me I really enjoyed myself and was very lucky
to able to work at such an amazing winery.
Here are a few
snaps I took in the last week of work….
Guilia got the
chance to make her own wine… although just a small amount, she was very happy
After a few days
of begging Steven (our superviser) to let me dig, I finally got involved and a group of us
dug out four vats of grapes... two woods and two in ground concrete ones. By the
end of the day I was absolutely exhausted, but went home with a nice helping of
wine
otherwise, there
was lots of cleaning to do!If the pump
doesn’t work… get in there yourself!
(I’m sure my butt doesn’t normally look
that big?!)
and plenty of antics to finish up a hectic 10 weeks...
all in all.... certainly an experience!
