Pete's Magical Mystery Tour

[paubin]

Well folks, I've grown tired of chasing threads so I've decided to follow the lead of past greats like AAA Stinky and such and just use 1 thread for all my adventures. Maybe this way I won't have missed things. Pic's and such, right Waldo! LOL !!! I'm on my iPad right now and posting pic's is a pain on this so I'll get on my putter in a few mins and get them posted promptly.

Man I like following these threads ... keep the updates coming

 

[grapeman]

Oh WOW the cherry looks especially great!

 

[paubin]

I used canned tart pie cherries in water of course. The can lids kept cutting the nylons I use as bags so I said to heck with straining bags and just dumped. It'll be a pain on 1st racking but I'll deal with it then.

Some of you may remember my Golden Retriever "Calista" from previous posts. She recently won two Blue Ribbons (first place) in the Breed by Exibitor Class at The Wine Country Circuit Dog Shows. She was great in the show and I'm sure she will continue to do great in the future.

The picture of the cherry wine reminds me of the 1st fruit wine my dad and I made when I was a kid. No straining bags back then! It wasn't that bad to rack but it sure looked like something that followed a bad night of drinking and eating too much. The outcome though... well worth the racking!

 

[paubin]

Finally got a few days off of work so I was able to get a little done.

Racked the Cherry Mel
