New Vineyard Competition (Winemaking)

[piedmont_phil]

OK, so for reasons already mentioned I didn't manage to run the vineyard competition this year. So here is a (shorter) alternative.
As you may have read in my other posts, the barbera d'asti grapes had some challenges this year and our yield was much lower than we would have liked.
I have now completed the initial fermentation process and this week pressed the "must", thus separating the grape skins from the liquid. I now have an accurate measure of the alcohol content of the 2008 vintage.

So the competition is quite simple:

What alcohol content is my 2008 Vintage Barbera d'Asti?

There will be a modest prize for the first accurate answer - only one guess per person please.

Hmm, Barbera Superiore has to be 12.5 and sounds like you've done a fair bit better than that. My choice has gone, so I'll go a bit higher:

13.8
