So my dad pulled out his old wine making equipment and offered to lead me and his old winemaking buddy's daughter through the whole process! We made little videos of it (because we weren't going to remember all the steps) and then ended up splicing them all together to put them on facebook. But I thought some here might also be interested, so check it out!
This is all in Napa, the grapes are zinfandel, and the goal is a wine that is light enough that it won't require any aging (that's a bit more complex, and my dad thought we should start out with something easy.) We may or may not also make a bit of port from the wine too - it'll depend on the sugar levels when we check next week!
