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.

Today I was told that my 2008 Tanglefoot tasted like Vermouth, and you know ... it does! I didn't write up that recipe anywhere, but did write up the next version. You can find it here, but you do need to give it 3 years if you want it to taste like vermouth. It turned out 14.1% ABV and despite that high figure really is very good indeed.

It wasn't the right thing to have with a homemade, indian inspired, yoghurt marinaded, salmon fillet and pasta with homemade pesto. But what would be? a nice big red may have been the best choice, but so may have been a Green Tea & Ginger which is spectacular with spicy food, especially curry.

The sad news is ... it was the last bottle, and that means in the whole world!
