The basket press

To finish my series from the Rockford winery, here is the traditional 1890 "Basket Press" used to extract the juice from the grapes. Unfortunately it was not in action when I visited. The note shows a bottle of Rockford's prized "Basket Press Shiraz" from 2006. Which leads to this musical link. HFF and have an enjoyable weekend, everyone.

Thanks, Wierd. I don't fancy your chances as I suspect it is not exported.
