Hi Everyone
My name is Jim, and I have just stared this hobby (ok, lifestyle).
I have brewed beer for several years, but my cousin's husband got me started in wine.
I currently have a C/C Cab in sencondary and can't wait to sample it.


I am retied from the US Navy and airport manager at Schoolcraft County Airport (ISQ). If you are flying in the area, stop by!


My wife and I enjoy a good bottle of wine with dinner, and have recently been into Chilean wines. Man, they make some good stuff down there!


I think my next one will be a Chilean Carmenere, if this one turns out.


Jim

Depends on who you ask. I think I am coming out fairly sweet, but SWMBO says...
 
hello all new comers to the group remember no matter how you get there the final word is how does it taste,taste and taste.
 
Welcome SSNET,






Thank youfor your service to this country!


Malbec is becoming one of my favorites from Chile, haven't tried the Carmenere yet.


Enjoy
 
Tepe I get malbec from the liquor store, so far. Just had it at the last wine club and it will be on the list to make.
 
Oh I thought you made it. Look for a kit or some juice. Hmmm.....
 
PerhapsI should explain my username.
