    WineXpert Table grape wine

    My first batch of wine, was made with a blend of Muscadine , Red and black table grapes. It turned out to be pretty good. I sweetend it back to a semi sweet. Ended up with 36 bottles. Still have about 10 of them. I'm fairly new to wine making. Edited by: dizzy

    Co2 re-corker.

    The latest consumer reports states that the Vacu Vin dosn't really make much of a difference. They had it in with the wine review. Never used one myself , so I really don't know.

    racking

    You can rack it back into the primary, clean your carboy, and then rack it back into it.

    Bottle Suppliers
