After many, many kits of home-brews we have decided to expand our operations to wine-making. Truthfully, Nick got me the equipment to start our wine-making for my birthday back in September. We were just a little behind in using it.
First up on the wine-making list: a California Cabernet. Nick's choice if you couldn't have guessed.
Like with the beer, we are using kits at this point. We ordered our kit from Midwest Brewing (great store for those of you interested in this fun hobby) and started the actual process a month or so ago.s ago. We hope we like it, as we have 30 bottles of it either way.
Next up on the wine-making list: a California Chardonnay (can you tell we have a preference to where our wine's come from?) We have yet to order the kit, but will do it one of these days. Estimated consumption date: November/December. I cannot wait!
Here are some pictures of the process thus far.

All 30 bottles, and still room for more in the rack!
