Ready to join the party!

[TyTheGuy]

I have been seeking out advice and answers to many questions through these forums over the past few months and I have finally decided to introduce myself and join in on the fun.

I started out making single gallons of fruit wines a few years ago and that actually went quite well. I have since moved on to the kits after stumbling upon The Winemakers Toy Store while working in the area. I am ready to bottle my first batch of WE Vieux Chateau Du Roi. I already have a couple more kits I have purchased that I am hoping to start the first of later today.

Thanks for the help on the first one and hopefully many more to come!

Ty, welcome to the forum! Good thing George moved the store to it's current location. You probably wouldn't have stumbled across it at the former location.

Welcome Ty,

My first kit was the V.R. Chateau Vieux du Roi as well, and I've gotten lots of compliments from people I've shared it with. There's also quite a few of us here doing 1 gallon fruit wines, myself included. Glad to have you on board with us.

Welcome aboard, glad you decided to sit and chat with us. Look forward to reading your posts.

Just to update you guys, the VN merlot is now resting peacefully. I am going to bulk age for 2 months then bottle. I hope to start a CC 5 week kit at the first of the month. I'm trying to see which is a better bang for the buck. Wish me luck!
