Just racked my rhubarb and my Riesling from Walkers Fruit Basket buckets. I need to get off my Duppa and start doing some bottling for the Holidays. Most of the wine I have aging is at or over a year old and ready!

Holy Smokes Wade, didn't you buy that a year ago?

Wade I think you need to get all your labels made up ahead of time for all of your wines and then have a bottling party. It actually could be a fun day. If I was close to you and out of the harvest season I would help you out.

Hollerday Activities

Bottled a carboy full of Cabernet Sauvignon, and chilled with my wife drinking one of the last few bottles of my Triple Berry Skeeter Pee.

Now, my lovely wife does not like dry wines. She likes her juice sweet and light. I made her try the CS we were bottling, and I was amazed that she liked it. I pulled down a bottle of CS I had purchased to top off the carboy (since I am only a few months into this hobby, I don't have my own finished wine to keep them full).

After tasting mine and then the store bought wine (Gallo Family), I literally nearly gagged! The store bought stuff was absolute crap! It was very very harsh and tart compared to the wine I had just made, which still needs to sit in the bottles for a while before drinking.

I am ruined for that grocery store goat urine they call wine. Yuck! And they sell that swill for $10+ a bottle to the masses? Are you kidding me?!

 

[Wade E]

Most are made but there are a few that I still need to design. Have plenty of bottles to do it just dont have the ambition to do it but I will get it done soon as I need to for the holidays to give out.

Dave congratulations, that's a great story!!

 

[jeepingchick]

I so feel your pain my wife can't stand hardly any store bought wine she prefers mine to any of them she says mine taste like the fruit/grape not like a wood casket lol
