Bummer, dude. I'll be in Austin @ SXSW. I'll have to take you out for dinner shortly after.

BTW, love the new look of the site.
 
T & J, every time I check yr blog I'm angry at myself that I couldn´t find my way to yr place while I was in town end of '06 into '07... 'Boquerones' as you may know or not, are uncured anchovies, Spanish style-- what a great pairing menu!-- bummer, indeed!
Hope I can be in town again around end of May or mid-June.
Gotta email you at length: have a tentative go-ahead on making some test (half-)barrels of wine here in Mendoza & wanted to take a page from yr book-- Sr.Ramírez has French barriques sitting around I cd ferment in, but of course, after pressing I'll have 120- 140? liters of wine, & at this point my only option is be 'pure' & let it 'age' in some 100 liter steel containers...
Anyway, my concern is procedure on cleaning those barrels properly for their use as open-top fermentors as you do yr 500 liter puncheons...
Please let me know if I can call you at some point, I've got Skype installed on my laptop for long distance...un millón de gracias, & all the best to ya always! --djr
