Sounds like a decent idea for a day trip. If I only had space for one right now. :(

Great write up, Waldo. I always look forward to posts about enjoying wine with food. I'm adding Black Currant to my list of things to try.

Thanks, Funky! That looks like a pretty comprehensive site. And the recipe is definitely a good place to start.

Actually, what we have are apparently called Japanese Honeyuckle, based on the pictures I found at a university website. As you can see, it is pretty bushy and has yellow and white flowers. Here's a close-up of the flowers. I've never seen berries on one of these. They smell so good...

Hi all, I was driving home this afternoon and passed a huge patch of honeysuckle. It's not in bloom now, but when it is it is very fragrant, and the nectar is very sweet. Has anyone tried to make honeysuckle wine? I figure it would take a massive harvest of flowers just to make a gallon...

You know, as energizing and exhausting (oxymoron, anyone?) as all that training can be, it doesn't really touch my creative side. I imagine racking, stabilizing and bottling can both be energizing and exhausting work, but I suspect that making wine will touch more of the inspirational side of...

Thanks for keeping me in mind. I'm not in a hurry to get bottles, so it isn't a big deal. I just figure that the more stuff I have on hand when I finally start making wine in the (hopefully near) future, the less I'll have to worry about. I'm also all for recycling. I can't stand to see...

Okay, I'm going to try to post a picture of myself up here. My name is Patrick. I live near Athens, GA. I'm not currently making wine, but do enjoy drinking it. My dad was into making wine for a while, so I'm going to see what I can pilfer from him, as far as picking up some vinting...

I am also in Georgia (recently of Missouri) and would be interested in some bottles. I haven't started making wine yet, but intend to within the next year or so. I'm currently trying to find a way to finance a new hobby. This is my first post, but I've been lurking a while. PM me about the...
