Not content with deciding upon scaling up, I made another decision. My country wines are all going to be whites or rosés, I'm not going to try making reds. I'm not sure I have the patience for Elderberry wine, aging for 2 years+. Blackberry and Blackberry & Elderberry wines are delicious, but in my opinion they are more like a robust or big rosé than a red.
However I do like red wine, and I want to brew it. So I decided that I will continue to make Red Wine Kits. Today I picked up a Beaverdale Vieux Chateau Du Roi. Only a gallon as I can't afford more. This is widely and reliably reported to be the closest thing you'll get to Chateau Neuf Du Pape but in a kit. So I'll do the patience bit for this wine, a year should be good enough tho if my patience can hold out for longer then I'm sure it'll be rewarded. At £2/bottle it feels like a steal.
