You really know your stuff, Anne is lucky to have you. I have known your boss for a long time. She has a reputation for growing that perfect cluster of Pinot noir...small berries, deep black color, concentrated and hung out to ripen long and even. I noticed in her earlier blogs she tips her hat to you and your crew. That is a wonderful thing to see. Your skills and crew leadership are what earns the gold medals, and creates the reputation that establishes the brands. I also know that working for Anne might not be as easy as working for other winery owners. She has her roots in the vineyard, and nothing much gets by her. On the other hand, it must be great to be the Winemaker at Donum! I mean, how hard can it be to make wine from those perfect clusters! Keep up the good work, we love your wines. Mike Crumly Nabor-
