This is the perfect example of poor parenting. Come on, grow up.

This has turned into quite a race–if it were on television, they would love the lead changes. Polls close tonight so get your votes in!

LK and other skeptics, don’t forget to vote cage! (On a related note, one of my (adult) friends wrote to see if he could get in the Petrus cage. Mark–is this a new business opportunity for you?)

I like the subversive nature of this whole thing which is why we participated.

There are well meaning folks who, in some way, equate a picture of a child at a winery with a picture of a child in the middle of a pile of cocaine or some equally noxious narcotic. I’m happy to lend a hand (and a pic) to fight that perception.

With that in mind I’d say this is the least pretentious wine related post, well, ever. Dr. Vino is a freedom fighter! Viva Dr. Vino! :P

These apples don’t fall far from the vine, or the orchard for that matter.

I only wish I could have contributed to it with photos from past field trips to wineries, but sadly, they were school property. Such is life! The photos above are fantastic, and I truly hope this conversation will continue, whereby diminishing the power we’ve chosen to give alcohol. Eventually, more posts like this can alter our relationship, our perception, of children contributing to winemaking and wine in general. What a dream!

One of my favorites is of my daughter testing the Brix (sugar level) of some Barbera juice with a refractometer before fermentation.

Technically it wasn’t wine yet but she does take her job as my assistant winemaker very seriously. Punching down and pitching yeast are her specialties. :-)

Fun post. Thanks.

Except at Chateau Petrus. And that my mad Photoshop skillz are not available for hire, should anyone be clamoring for my assistance. Ahem.
