Yes Boatboy24, that's what I was thinking, but a bit more folkart-ish like some of the ugly face jugs I've made. When fired with a glaze they are totally sealed, the clay just starts to melt and becomes glass.
I haven't made wine since I was a kid (helping my dad) and recently started fermenting a few small batches. I was wondering if ceramic bottles are ever used by home wine makers.
