Having watched my father put together several time-lapse videos, I can appreciate the amount of work it took filmmaker James Knott to produce this 30 second video of grapes turning into raisins…
Now, if I could figure out how to accelerate the process of turning our wine at the same speed, I’d be set.
This is a fairly interesting video of the wine making process.
Of course, being one of the wine makers at Wreckless Blenders, I see several missing steps, such as pressing, racking, and blending. I also note that there is a step for filtration in the video and we don’t normally filter our wines.
We make only red wines and I notice that the video has an excellent set of red grapes, including Barbera, Sangiovese, and Malbec, among others. Cabernet Franc, Petite Sirah, and Breakfast Blend are missing. Heh. A Breakfast Blend grape. That would be excellent. Really would add meaning to its tagline of ‘Not just for breakfast anymore.’
