#2015Loire: Pickers @Natalie and Frédéric Mabileau's Saint-Nicolas vines


Natalie and Frédéric Mabileau have an ace team of Spanish pickers. However, they still had 12 hectares to pick when we saw them yesterday late morning. The Mabileaus are keen to finish as soon as possible (Saturday) before the potential alcohol goes too high – rapidly concentrated by the strong North East wind. Furthermore, the weather next week looks to be less favourable.
