Hi all, last November my wife and I starting making wine. We jumped in with both feet (arms, legs and all body parts). We started with an
Amarone,
South AfricanChenin Blanc
Peach Island mist.
Since then we have bottled a Chilean Merlot and an Island mistKimi Pear
In the carboys now are
Island Mist - Mango Citris
Californian Trinity Red
Vieux Chateau Du Roi
Next
Australian Verdelho
We are amazed how easy and fun it is to do. Why did we takeso long to start doing it.
Have learned so much by reading all the post here.
Thanks for all the tips
Only question is how do you refrain from slipping down to the wine room and opening a bottle of Amarone that is only 4 months old, lol
