Hello Wood1954, Naked Wines are a good source of characterful wines, often sourcing wines which are not mainstream, which is really good if you enjoy wine, very bad if you are an ignorant drinker; meaning, someone who criticises a wine because it isn't Sauvignon Blanc or a 15% full-bodied...

Although I might have made a lot of wine 35 odd years ago, and some of those years were very odd, I consider myself a beginner; really because I didn't push the barriers at all, just followed a recipe; plus, 35 years is quite a break! I have a Rosehip wine that has been fermenting for just over...

Hello Noontime, Yes, I absolutely agree, the spacial positioning is not right. I struggled a lot to get the text I wanted, plus the family coat of arms all on the label, within the print area. There are empty spaces above the vintage and the alcohol percentage; I wanted these two to be central...

Oh, I forgot to mention, yes mostly fruit. We used to make vast quantities (for home consumption) I hope that the Inland Revenue read this, and fruit seemed to pop up with regularity among our many successes. We have tried other sources, oak leaf, potato, strange things that someone has written...

Hello Rice_Guy, Good heavens! I've heard of long-life milk, but long-life vinyl is new for me. May I ask if you just produce for your own consumption, or do you produce commercially? I guess the Inland Revenue doesn't read these posts... I use that same system for demijohns, a recycled piece...

Yes, it is a bit of a trial, once everything was there, I did the same, just selected and duplicated; but, it's not perfect, there are still a couple of things that I need to work on, then I might progress into colour!

Hello Bmd2k1, I printed my labels in monochrome because I don't think that they are are good enough to deserve a colour print treat. The coat of arms needs some more work, also, I don't expect the wine inside the bottles to be that good; it was a first effort for a long time. The sloes in...

This is my first attempt at creating a label for over 30 years. I created it for the first wine we have made in over 30 years, I think the label was more difficult than making the wine! Three decades ago, I just wrote on a random piece of paper by hand, something like 'Rosehip, October 1986'...

Thank you BigDaveK, I really struggled to make those labels! I also, finally, found the Avery site. I had decided that I could fit six labels on an A4 sheet of paper, my thinking was that the smallest quantity of wine I would make is a gallon, so six bottles. I just couldn't find a template, I...

Hello everyone! We have started making wine again! My wine journey began as a child. I collected some mulberries in a bottle and they started to ferment. My mother said, why don't we try making some wine? It all got well out of hand, at one time we had 70 gallons quietly bubbling away in the...
