So most of you may rememberI purchased a new home with a beautiful supply of concorde grapes from a 30 yr old vine. So naturally I ate them lol, then when I had gotten sick of eating so many grapes I gave some to freinds and a nieghbor who happened to be a home Vinter(Lucky me). He started me off in making my own wine. In the home the bonus was this wine room which my wife thought would be a great cold room or store room. I didnt have a chance to get it cleaned out as of yet. The other day she was in it and said hey when did you get all of this wine making stuff

. I said honey it was here dont you remember, (I bought it all in the past three months lol) I started to clean up the room and get it kind of looking good, but now I am offering the pictures for critics and ideas from the wonderful people here like apple who showed me some ideas for the terracotta clays.The old guy who had the house was quite a home brewer i wish i had more aof a chance to speak with him about it before he moved to florida!! Bob by the way if your reading this forumn please call me

thats great room..do you have runing water in there?


I dont have running water "YET". I plan on redoing my basment all over to my own specs when the money warrants it, and a wine room of the finest quality will be a must!!The room just across fromthis room though,is a laundry room and I was thoughful enough to realize my wife needed one of those huge laundry tubs hooked up in there

. I now use that to soak and clean my wine bottles amongst other things. Its only ten feet away, so not far at all. am I not a good husband or what

What are the plans for those mirrors? Did they come with the house to?


lol No they were decorative bases for candle holders from our wedding, I am hoping that someday I can use them in a wine show to showcase my fine tasting wines that I am learning to prucure thanks to you and everyone else on George's forum.
