Wine making

17 Sep: we got 13kg of grapes and 7,8kg juice. They are extremely sour but let’s see how the result will come out 😉
The first time 9kg of grapes gave 6kg juice

18 Sep: I wash the grapes and crush them by hands

The crushed grapes are put for fermentation. I stir them 2-3 times per day.

23 Sep I put port wine yeast on with 1,4kg sugar

Filled and aged

21 Sep - The first test was around 12% of the sweet grapes

19 Nov - The 2nd test was 18% of the sweet grapes. The taste was still young but very much like porto wine. My husband approved it with a nice surprise. He didn’t expect I could make it 😉
