Been doing this for about 13 years now freinds and family get together .

We do 2 - 60 gallon oak barrels plus some overs in the demijohns

both barrels are blends

 

The rack is bottles from past years

 

That is cool.. who's job is it to turn the bottles..

I dont turn them

Looks like fun! I like white wine better though...

I was talking to some people at at wedding a few weeks ago. The family and friends of the groom pitch in and purchase a tractor-trailer load of grapes from California to make their wine each year.

 

Where do you get your grapes from?

Do you do it at home or at a winery?

 

did this a few years ago when I worked at Ameriprise for a client event. Some good Cab/Sauv.

All this red wine and hangovers and you still like to meet at the crack of dawn to do gun transfers?!

I used to help my friends father do this. We actually did stomp on it like in the lucy show lol.

Ha ! the trick is use a small amount of sulfites the only part of a hangover is dry mouth

Very nice. I am actually trying to sell my wine press, no time or money(thanks obama) I really miss making the wine, I am jealous right now.

 

Enjoy it with some venison...
