Thanks, St Allie. I have made Zin, Chard, Merlot, Gewürztraminer, and Amarone--mostly from concentrate kits. Two 23 litre "all juice" kits (An Italian Amarone and an Australian Chardonnay) turned out quite well. The Amarone needs aging.
I'm Charlie. Living in Black Mountain, NC. I have enjoyed making wine for several years now, but I still consider myself a novice. Most of my experience has been with kits. My first effort at "from scratch" wines was a batch of peach wine that has turned out to be decent. I have a cellar...
