Hi everyone from Reston, VA

[ameinecke]

Hi everyone!

I just found this forum earlier today and it has such a wealth of information and the community is really cool!

I started making kit wines in August 2010, and now I am moving on to my first fruit wines, and have been looking for a little direction.

So far we have bottled:
1. Chianti
2. Merlot
3. Pinot Grigio
4. Sangiovese
5. Riesling

And in the tanks now:
1. Coastal White Rose
2. Argintinian Malbec
3. Homemade, Hand Squeezed Orange

Thanks everyone!

Welcome to the forum. We are not faraway either in the eastern panhandle too. The wine scene in our area is growing every year, but it is alot cooler to make your own.

I'm all up for a road trip. Both of you guys are 3 hours from me.

Anyone in range of us wants to pick some elderberries is more than welcomed to come over, we could never pick them all.

Also, I am trying to find a home for 2 wire wineracks listed in the for sale section if anyone closeby is interested.

Thank you for the invite!! That sounds like it would be a lot of fun! When do you normally pick eldeberries? We are definitely interested!

You are very lucky for that elderberry option. It makes such an awesome wine and when you get them be sure to ask for Julie's Elderberry Blush recipe to make seconds out of the used fruit. It reallly is that good!
