Any place that sells beer supplies, wherever you got your wine kit should have the extra light DME.

a typical Itilian Borolo is not released for at least 7 to 10 years from time of picking, most are relased around the 10 to 15 year time... Love a great aged wine and a Borolo is it. Be patient with it, it will improve with age.:ib

Ya think?:)

favorites: Consintino Cigar Zin, anything by BV. Moet Nectre Imperial for sparkling. Everyday drinking: Anything by Rosemont, Eyzaguirre Cab and Syrah ( cool bottle wraped in burlap). Korbel Brut or Rose for " Champagne Sundays". so many other to even list...lol

capsuls are now mostly for decoration, aside from "vermin and cork wevils" the other reason for capsuls was for retails. when bottles were standing up in a store, customers would compair the amout of wine in each bottle grabbing the ones with the most in them and leaving the ones that were not...

First off, don't wet your corks before inserting them, just put them in dry. If you are storing them on a shelf on their side it will "wet" the cork enough to swell the cork. If you are keeping them in their boxes set them up side down for long term storage. If you drink your wine within one...
