Re: Thanksgiving wine

wow, listening to all the different kinds of wines you guys and gals are
producing and imbibing, I feel like i'm a boring nothing....Very interesting
assortment of wines!!!!

I had some kit wine - a shiraz - that I overoaked, so use most of it for
cooking, but thought I"d see what it was like again after 6 months.
And also some Concord Grape wine, which in this area is the favourite of
most of my friends!  It was very good!
I mostly make fruit wines as there are not a lot of excess winemaking grapes
around, unless I venture out 2 hours north or 2 hours south next year and
try to get some grapes...  just didn't have the time this summer, and
suddenly, motorcycle season and grape-picking season are allllllll over!
now it's a frigid below-freezing temperature!  ugh!

right now I'm destemming and chopping pears which I received from a
friend...whatta chore, but it's good to get another batch started!

Happy holidays to you all -
Blessings.
