The past couple of days have been a wine extravaganza around here. On Friday, we racked a red wine kit. It’s brand of wine kit that I hadn’t tried before (RJ Spagnols). It has a simplified process, which I like. Plus, the kit had dried grape skins included, which is the way to go. Last year, I did a kit with grape skins and it turned out so much better than the ones without. I won’t be going back.
On Saturday night, we bottled a batch of blackberry port. Yum! And, tonight I started a white wine kit, from the same brand as the first one we did. It was a white wine, but also had dried grapes, so I will be interested to see how it turns out. Normally, all of the white wine I make is pretty good, so I wonder if the grapes will add anything.
I have another kit sitting downstairs and another one that will be in at the end of the month. Beyond that, I’m thinking about doing strawberry wine again this year as I’m not sick of it yet and I only have a few bottles left from last year. The wine racks are looking a little bare, so this should help remedy the situation.
