What vegetables can wine be made from

[GreenEnvy22]

Bought a 23L bucket of Kerner today. Never made it before. Also using a yeast I've never used before, 58W3.
Should be interesting.

 

[J-Hat]

Not wine but I’m making a pumpkin ale

Started some onion wine using Keller's receipe yesterday.

Added some garlic, lime juice. rosemary, and thyme.

Smells pretty good so far.

I always thought the smell and taste of vinegar/onion was a bad sing of spoilage

 

[rustbucket]

I bottled an RJ Spagnols Cru Select Australian Cabernet Shiraz Merlot last week and now have an Eclipse Nocturnal Wine, a Chateauneuf-du-Pape wine, stabilizing.

 

[Alan tate]

I remember bottling thousands off gallons of chateauneuf-du-pape in england shipped in from france.i didnt like it too much i found it earthy but hay everyones taste is different.

 

[rustbucket]

I agree, tastes do differ. Chateauneuf-du-pape wines are a favorite of mine.

 

[benchmstr]

currently: dragon blood, cabernet, pinot noir....and 12 gallons of imperial stout

Just started bulk aging an RJS Riesling Traminer blend. One of my coworkers gave me all of his brewing gear, which included three one-gallon carboys and one three gallon carboy, so I'm thinking I might pick up a dessert kit on Friday

I told you I had 18 carboys of various sizes with wine in them!

The Brunello is 22 months old (+ a week), so I can steal a taster from it if you'd like. I need to rack it anyway and add some Kmeta, I'll just steal the taster before the Kmeta if you promise to drink it quickly. If you remind me I can drop it off when I pick up the samples for the Chromo next month.

22 months??? Isn't it time that wine made it to the bottle?

I would love to sample it before buying one of these. Drink it quickly? Oh, okay.... if I must.

Craig, do you have a real job. That's about 15 batches a year. Where do you find the time?
