I've long wanted to try my hand at home wine making, but to be honest, i
know absolutely nothing about it. zero. zilch. nada.
I had long been under the impression that home wine making was limited
to strawberry and watermelon and dandelions and the like, but a brief net
search showed me the error of my ways, and it appears there are wide
ranging kits from red zinfandels to ports to shiraz. now that's what i'm
talking about.
I'm a chocolate maker by day. I'm sure we can work out a trade for any
enterprising teacher who's willing to help me out and get me started
So how about it - where's the best place for me to start? Do i go with one
of the kits? Are there better ways to initate oneself? I'm afraid I'm so
green i don't even know the right questions to ask at this point. I
tyipcally like the heavier, spicier red wines (old vine red zins, shiraz,
bordeaux's), although i've been known in the summer to drink a very
sweet red wine with a grilled pizza on the porch as well.
Thanks for any help y'all might be able to give!
