I've been making fruit, concentrate and kit wines for a year now. A friend called and said he would bring me approx. 150 lbs. of concord grapes. Being that I have not done a wine from fresh grapes before- my wife and I de-stemmed and hand crushed the grapes , then squeezed them as well as we could, and got the primary fermentation started. My question is: we both had very itchy skin from doing this by hand. Is there something in grapes that would cause this?
Thanks.
Jim
