To run a vineyard do you have to drink the wine?
The Beaujolais-Dupeuble Winery has been in the family since 1512.
In a good year, the vineyard produces 300,000 bottles from these hills.
Fresh grapes start their new life in stainless-steel vats,
Bearing the family crest.
They are pressed,
Transfered to insulated tanks to mature,
And bottled 25,000 at a time.
I'm not totally unqualified.
As a kid, I made my first pocket change selling grapes from my grandpa Elden's vineyard in Springville.
After the tour, Jocelyn offered samples of Beaujolais products:
white wine, red wine, rose wine . . .
. . . and grape juice.
I love the label on the grape juice.
