    I used UPS. Called them non perishable food samples for testing. They really didn’t care.

    2024 WineMakerMag Competition results are in.

    I received my judges sheets today. 2 of the judges really liked the Cab Sauv, the other commented that it was a “kit wine” and didn’t think it had much aroma, but liked the taste. Pretty good scores on the Bordeaux and Super Tuscan as well. I’m not sure where the medal cutoff lines are as I’m...

    2024 WineMakerMag Competition results are in.

    I won one Gold for my Finer wine Cabernet. It was a Forte with 6 weeks in my Hungarian barrel. Unfortunately (or fortunately depending on how it turns out) I used most of mine to blend into a Bordeaux blend so I don’t have many left. I too am looking for the comments as I felt my Bordeaux...

    The Bread Thread

    A friend at work brought in a sourdough starter for me last week. I’ve been making breads from the Ken Forkish book so I figured I would give this a try. It turned out good.

    What's for Dinner?

    Pizzas last night. One of ours guests is gluten intolerant so I made some doughs with Caputo Fioreglut flour. It made a good pizza. Everyone liked it and I was able to stretch it out. Definitely will use again.

    Your.. Own wine / Bought wine?

    I’m in the 90% probably as well. Under 300 total in bottle, and around 150 in bulk. My wife thinks I should slow down, but then she says that Super Tuscan is really good…and I have to explain that we are getting low so I better make more!

    Other Finer Wine Kits new process white wines

    I have made the WE Private Reserve Sonoma Chard, the WE Reserve Australia Chard and the FWK Lodi Chard. All are good. I made the FWK and Australia at the same time. I have a slight preference for the FWK. I felt the flavors were a little softer, but similar. I had some friends taste both...
