Just over 11,000 pounds of grapes arrived after their long journey from Chile to meet a whole group of friends and family who were ready with gloves and old clothing to sort through them and pull out all the extras such as leaves, moldy or unpleasant looking grapes. When the first box of grapes is picked up and dumped into the crusher and the sound of the crusher and the hum of conversation is heard over the grape sorting table you know crush has begun.
