The RJ Spag Choc Orange Port I bottled yesterday with my new corker

 

[Dugger]

I am sampling splits of my:
LOVZ - Sel. Estate series, about 12 months old
Cal Pinot Noir - Cru Select, about 13 months old
South African Cab Sauv - 2009 LE, about 19 months old
Dolcetto - 2009 LE, about 12 months old
to see what I can offer tomorrow for Thanksgiving family gathering. So far the LOVZ is very good, the Pinot Noir is still a little harsh and haven't got to the other 2 yet.

I'm drinking a bottle of Runninwolf's Riesling/Traminer. Did I say bottle, yes that is right the whole bottle. Great weekend buy whoa glad that is done.

Dufresne, How did this turn out for you and how long did you let it sit in the carboy before bottling. I just started the same thing a few days ago.

I wasnt that happy with the OCP. I did that one and the White Chocolate Port and the White Choc is much better IMO. I didnt find any Orange flavor at all in mine and I love Chocolate covered oranges. The CRP and WCP are way better to me. I havent tried one in at least a year though so maybe it came around.

It was because my wife loves that orange chocolate thingy you get at christmas time that she picked this kit. After I ordered it I started reading all the rave's about the chocolate/raspberry. It certainly costs enough that I hope she's happy with it. Would you recommend adding an orange brandy liquor to it? http://www.finevinewines.com/ProdDetA.asp?PartNumber=19236
Which leads me to another question. If I made a wine I added chocolate to, could I add this to get an orange flavor added to it?

Bottled my first batch of Skeeter Pee (I call it "Pop's Curiously Strong Lemonade"). Couldn't resist, so I'm enjoying a glass over ice right now -- it's really quite good!

I'm enjoying the "less than full bottle" remains of a gooseberry I bottled yesterday. First time I've made gooseberry and it is really pleasant. I used the slurry to make a batch of gooseberry Skeeter Pee too. That's really good too. It's my last batch of SP for the season. I keep it around for people who want to try it even in the cold months in Minnesota.

Hi Runninwolf,

I start it sometime early July so it has sat in the carboy for about 3 months or so. It is very good right now although the guy at my LWS told me to wait another 3 - 6 months after I bottled for it to really get good.
