Crafted June 8th, Racked June 21st, Filtered & Bottled July 31st
Next we made our first wine… from a kit… a cabernet sauvignon. And, as June and July were, it rained the days we crafted, racked AND bottled!!! And thus, another name was born!! 😆
The Must, complete with grape skins & oak chips, fermenting away…
A beautiful Cabernet Sauvignon!
Bottled…
And labelled…
And stored in the basement!
And the final result? As Barb & Gregor say, “it’s not plonk!”
12.7% ABV, 21 L; and in a blind taste test, it was equal or better than the cab sauv we usually buy! It’s a “Do-Again”!!!! 🍷🍷
