Hi everyone,
I am from Victoria, Australia and am just starting in winemaking. At the moment I am experimenting with kits, but hope to be able to start making wine and cider from raw ingredients in a few years (finding supply of fruit might be my biggest challenge).
I have experience with lots of types of preserving, and have been planning on making wine "one day" for about 20 years. I have finally decided that one day should be today (or maybe this year, it is a slow process!) and have made a start. I went a bit overboard buying corks (they get cheaper when you buy in bulk!) so will be making a LOT of wine....
My only wine making experience comes from using OzTops (screw caps with a pressure valve you use on ordinary juice bottles to make a fresh sparkling "wine" or cider) so I expect I will be learning a lot over the next few years.
