Carnation Anapa Winery, part 3, day 51: Corking

I decided to do not cork shortly before going on vacation and instead wait little more. Now I came back from vacation, measure specific gravity the last time and finally cork.

  • Petite Sirah: 0.992 (0.990 + 1/5)
  • Mourvèdre: 0.992 (0.990 + 1/5)
  • Grenache: 0.990

I bought the last box of green bottles at Mt Si Homebrew Supply and rented handy floor “Itallian” corker for $20/day. A new one they sell for $120 so it looks like a good deal since I need it for only one day in a year.
