I like to brew wine; It's only a hobby but I'm obsessed!
This is the place to be if you want to see what another brewer is up to or want some encouragement to start or diversify. I've posted heaps of recipes (clicky) and 2 wine-making vids (here for wine made from cartons of juice blog / youtube, and here for Blackberry wine on the pulp blog / youtube).
If you're new here then do explore, take this link for tips about where to find what you're interested in.

Making Progress

Slowly making progress towards the Elderflower brew. Finished labelling etc the 25+ bottles in the wee small hours. Lay them all down too. Must have around 20 unique wines bottled at the mo, some almost 2 years old. There are at least another half dozen to bottle aswell.

Yesterday went sniffing Elderflowers in our favoured picking spots. Just as we got out of the car in our very scant summery clothes the clouds opened in a tropical kind of way ... but we soldiered on and got completely drenched. All in the name of Elderflower wine, it's worth it, the flowers smelled great and now we just need a dry day with a sunny spell to go picking. There should be a suitable day in the week ahead.
