That's probably why some of the wines they sell in Brooklyn are $30 plus per bottle.

I think I've mentioned this before but I can't seem to find it. There is a winery close to where I live that does this. http://premiumwinegroup.com/ http://www.winemag.com/Web-2012/Its-Your-Barrel/ I also found another in Virginia that does the same. The one in Va states that it charges...

Thanks for the help. I'm going to give it a shot.

Anyone make their own vinegar? Or have any resources or recipes to share on the subject? I have a batch of apple wine that just didn't come out quite right. No sense letting it go to waste. I wouldn't mind making it a vinegar.

My kit is bulk aging going on 3 months. Last month I tasted it and wasn't too optimistic. Tasted it last night and it has dramatically improved. Wow! At this point should I be adding anything or just leave it be and bottle when ready?

I do get your point. I should have been clearer. I do not, unfortunately, live in Italy. I guess this is the best I can do under the circumstances. :) Although, my friends mom who is from Italy makes these UNBELIEVABLE sun dried tomatoes. Just by laying them on pieces of wood out in the sun...

Hmmm..... So maybe buying bulk juice pails is the better option to kits.

I just thought of another question. Would the kit be considered a "true" amarone? It did come with skins. But is there any way of knowing if the grapes were really aged in this way prior to packaging them into a wine kit? This particular kit is from Cellar Craft. Also, I checked out Trader...

Wow. That is interesting. The kit I am making isn't done yet but as I've been taste testing I've noticed it is a very intense flavored wine. Thanks.

I definitely need this!!

I recently acquired an Amarone kit. I have never had the pleasure of drinking this type of wine so I really didn't know too much about it. Usually if I find a kit or hear about a certain type of wine I will give it a try and compare it to what I have or will make. For example, I never heard...

There are only few who can truly appreciate its greatness.

I dropped the ball on this competition but I would definitely be into one of the ones listed above.

I will bottle mine Tuesday and have it out by Friday.

I'm trying to get mine bottled up and ready. I will post with a better idea of how its going by the end of the week.

Hello. I'm in Bellport area.

OK I'll let in on my secret. I'm making a strawberry white merlot kit. For my tweak I increased the ABV and also added a few pounds of kiwi berries. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actinidia_arguta I never heard of kiwi berries before but I figured what the hell.

Jojabri, I have been to several big lots stores in my area and have been unable to locate the soda bottles you speak of. This area (NYC/Metro) rarely has this type of stuff. When I lived in Virginia it seemed that certain things like this were more readily available. Can you tell me the brand...

Here's my pic!! :try

I picked up the kit today. Everything looks cool so far. However, it did not come with the instructions. I am a little unsure of the order. Here is a pic of what it came with: It also came with a pack of what looks like the grape skins. So...... Like a typical kit I add the...
