Hi guys, I want to make my own wine. My dad makes his wine the same way they made it 100 years ago. We live in Montreal, September is the month where grapes come from California. Who knows what is the quality of these grapes. Once purchased, the grapes are crushed and the then the whole mixture which includes the stems are fermented for about 6-7 days. Then comes the press until it is completely dry and no juice comes out. I have to admit that wine is good but better with food. Now I want to make wine differently but don't know where to start. Any suggestions. Is the bladder press a really good investment? What about removing the stems during the fermentation. Should sulfates be added, sugar sirup be added or yeast????? I need help!!!!!!
Regards,
Fred
