My first kit was a Island Mist black raz merlot, and I have a jacked up batch of pee. I have never been a wine drinker maybe a bottle of Wild Vines merlot here and there, with my super limited knowledge on wine and the names, shopping for a kit is very intimidating to me, so much that I have just been avoiding it. Well I figure if I'm really going to do this ( wine making ) I had better try a grown up wine so I'm here, with little to no idea of what I will like. Any time that I have tasted real wine, maybe like 5 times at Olive Garden, I really dont like the taste. Its all so new that I'm lost as to a kit that would be a good drinking wine but still a contender as a real wine. Or should I buy a few wines at the store to get a feel for it. Im planning a wine room with enough room for around 10 6gal carboys, more if I can swing it so the lost room or carboy is no real concern. So what should be my first real kit. I'll be doing lots of fruit wines like cherry and I have a gallon of ocean spray cran pom but I feel the need to do a "real" one. And help would be great or even a starting point.
