This could be in the wrong place, so if you want to move it, feel free! Actually posted this in the wrong forum entirely to begin with, as I keep a few tabs open, but at any rate, here goes!
So, I currently have a MM Petite Syrah going, a blackberry port, blackberry wine (attempt), and now a Burgundy.
My question is this - are there any excellent whites that people recommend? My first wine was a Riesling from Alexanders that I sweetened up and I think turned out pretty well. Still waiting on results from MVWS to see if they felt it was worthwhile at all, but got all positive comments.
So I considered another Riesling, perhaps playing with the sweetness more than last time, but almost want to expand a bit. Not a white fan overall, mostly dry reds at this point. I don't mind chardonnays for the most part, but haven't found a whole lot of whites that I enjoy.
So - any thoughts/suggestions would be great!
My plan for the summer is to try out a variety of fruit wines, perhaps try another port as well. Then perhaps try to grab some fresh grapes this fall and see what I can do with that.
Any other super-great kits/musts/etc (red or otherwise) that people tend to agree are worth trying at least once? Been reading the nice thread on the Impressions kits, which look pretty tasty. Perhaps too soon to have comments on them though?
Thanks for any suggestions!
