Our First Crush (Orchardists Turned Wine Makers)

Sikes Orchards Inc. has officially started crush under the "Stormy Mountain Winery and Distillery" name. Our first wines are Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec and Pinot Gris. The actual crush date was October 30th 2010.

I have partnered up with a National Guard buddy I work with to do some all grain brewing. We recently bottled an Australian IPA made from extract.
