2016 Chardonnay, day 101: a silly malolactic longer

See that tiny horizontal chain of bubbles at the top of the wine in the neck?  That's all that's left from the thin priest's collar of CO2 from the MLF that was going on.  The very slightest activity in all four vessels.

When this round of fermentation is definitely over we'll rack for the last time (I hope) before bottling.
