I've tasted many home made wines that friends have made. I really love wine but I've found that home made wines all share a certain taste or quality that most commercial bottles do not. I can't seem to put my finger on it. But for the large majority, they were not very good. All i know simply get the juice or crush the grapes, let it ferment and then transfer. THat's pretty much it.
I am on a quest to learn about this and through trial and error, try and make a bottle of wine that I would love to drink!
I bot a 16l grand cru Amarone kit from RJ spagnol to start and let it age and also bot an amarone vinifeira kit that i can perhaps sample earlier. I started with the kits since i read that they are more difficult to screw up.
But do people here have this experience of homemade wine having this strange taste relative to commercial wine? and if so, how to avoid it?
Thanks,
Jim
