Bust'n Out the Vieux Chateau Du Roi

While making these bottles of wine we have been alternating red and white wines. But that has been ruined and now two reds have been done consecutively. i've never had this grape before but i'm sure it can't be that bad. i mean, with a fancy name with that it has to be good. Right?

Mixing the benonite i used the fancy degasser. Made the job a million times easier. Well, taking pictures while stirring was still kind of a challenge.
i sprinkled the yeast in and put the lid on. Though when i put the air lock on top i pushed the seal through the lid so there was a leak that i was unaware of until a couple hours later...but now everything is good and its bubbling.
How could i forget brent, oh yeah...because he slept the whole time while i was starting the wine process. He snores too. i woke him up with the degasser, so that made up for it. The degasser has so many uses...
