Thank you for all the nice comments, my boyfriend made the ones that did not come with the wine kits.. my first label was the one that Wade helped me post, Peach Ice Wine. We have all of these wines but none are ready to drink yet. Boy, it is hard to stay out of them.
Sure Al, since some of you could not be there, well most of you, I wanted to make you feel like you were there.. :) still working on pictures..
VC, can't believe you have not tried it yet.. good of you, what will power..
The bottling party was a lot of fun last night. There were several people there to help. These are the wines that we bottled and got to try after all the work was done.

My first picture that I have posted, if it works. These are different wines that we have made.
You can't see the picture very well. It was so small and when I tried to enlarge it, it's distorts the picture. It took a long time to upload this picture also. I will keep working on it.

Is anyone on this Forum going to George's Bottling Party tonight? I drove down from Oklahoma today and plan on going. I think it will be lots of fun and a chance to try some new wine. I forgot to bring my camera but I have one on my phone but the pictures won't be as good. Wade I might need your...
I combined both of my kids.. I was ready for step 3, stabilizing and clearing, I added everything that came with both kits.. I figured if it takes #2, #3, #4 and the F-pack for a 3 gallon kit well I must need all of it for a 6 gallon.. when I started step 3 my SG was 1.004.. after I added the...
Ozark Paul, we are thinking about putting in at Pruitt Landing to Hasty section, we are actually staying in Harrison.. we usually stay in Jasper in a cabin but because of how unpredictable the weather is right now we are staying in a hotel.. a cabin you have to give a 7 days notice to cancel...
Ozark Paul, I'm not exactly sure where the put in will be but as soon as I know I will let you know.. there is a group of us that kayak.. we love for people to join us.
Miss Rocky, you can count me in.. now lets work on the folks in the surrounding areas and we will just have a grand time..
Ozark Paul.. those are interesting boats.. I'm not sure I have seen one like that before.. you would love the Caddo River.. it's really a fun paddle.. Oct. 24th we are...
I also got two kits and I combined both of mine. I thought four packs of yeast was a lot but put it in anyway. My SG started out at 1.124. After 7 days the SG was down to 1.014 so now it was ready for me to add the Chaptalisation (sugar addition). After adding the sugar addition the SG was...
Miss Rocky, keep me posted so I can get in the same area. I think it would be great to taste other wine that people have made and maybe Waldo will make that peach cobbler again. It would be nice if some of the other folks in the surrounding areas could make it.

Scotty, I'm going to try and make it out there next year.. I could bring my kayaks.. I'm not much of a tent person but have an RV.. I'm sure they have hookups.. that would be fun if we could get some of the FVW group together and have our own little wine fest.

Great pictures Waldo.. that looks like great fun.. that area is nice.. over Labor Day I paddle the Caddo River.. it was so pretty.. when the leaves change colors it would be gorgeous.
