Preparing to Funnel into the Receiving Barrel

The receiving barrel is ready.  I poured out the whiskey that had been used to condition it.  A large funnel is used to help get the wine in using buckets.


NOTE: You can see the receiving tub (previous photo) was coated zinc -- NOT recommend for contact with wine, get it out of there quickly!
