Wine Stains For Your Reading Pleasure

Wine Bottling and Syphoning



The ideal utensils to use for wine making and boiling ingredients & juices are those of good quality enamel. Those sold under a brand name are most reliable. The utensils must not be chipped.


It is almost impossible to pour clear wine from one bottle to another without stirring up the lees. Because of this, it is a good plan, to siphon off the clear wine when rebottling it.


Using about a yard and a half of surgical rubber tubing or plastic tubing, siphoning is a very simple operation. First, put the bottles or jars of wine on a table and the empty bottles on a stool or box on the floor. Next, put one end of the tubing in the first bottle of wine and suck the other end of the tube until the wine comes; pinch the tube at your lips and - holding on tight - put this end in the empty bottle and then let the wine flow. As the level of the wine falls, lower the tube into it, being careful not to let it touch the lees. When nearly all of the wine has been transferred, pinch the tube at the neck of both bottles, put one end into the next bottle and allow the wine to flow again.


In this way a constant flow is maintained and you have bottles of crystal-clear wine. The sediment from each bottle may be put together; this will clear in time to leave a little more wine.


Most of you will already have heard of one or other home-made wine and will have decided which to make. For those who have not yet decided, preference for a 'port* or 'whisky' may be the deciding factor and this must rest with yourselves.


I would advise you only in this: make, say, a gallon or a half-gallon of a variety of wines and then decide which you prefer over a period of time. I have whittled my own preference down to nine different wines which I brew regularly according to season, leaving the dried fruit for the time when fresh fruit is not available and when roots - potatoes, etc. - are too fresh for wine-making purposes.


NOTE:


Different recipes will call for slightly different approaches, but it must be remembered that whatever else has to be done, the brew must be kept in a warm place throughout the fermentation period, and that the process after fourteen days* fermentation in the tub is the same with all recipes.


Now select your recipe and go ahead with your wine-making, bearing in mind all that I have warned you about.

A Guide To Wine Bottle Racks



Wine has been part of my family since I can remember. I first got into small wine racks produced for appreciating and storing wine at my grandmother's.


My grandmother owns a modest vineyard and makes wine every year. One of my big joys I recall was, tasting her freshly made wine while helping with bottling and storing it in the wine bottle racks in her summer kitchen.


It is there that I learned the importance of wine racks if you want to preserve wine the right way.


Year after year, as my knowledge got deeper, I appreciated wine more and more.


Growing up, I developed a real passion for wine; I went to study it to understand its complexity and mystique.


As you can imagine, one of the first things I got when I moved in my own house was some small wine racks to start my very own collection.


Even though I started small, as I was living in an apartment, and therefore couldn't maintain a wine cellar, it was a start.


Day after day my collection keeps growing as does my knowledge and appreciation for all things wine.


Wine bottle racks not only give a tone of sophistication in my house now; they add to its warmth and to my personality.


My current wine bottle racks are made of wood and hold about 50 bottles, but, the way it is created, I can add to it by simply placing another layer on top....these are stackable wooden wine racks that allow your collection to grow over time.


Recently I traveled to Spain, France and Italy. The wine countries of the world. I have added a significant amount to my small wine racks to my collection and enjoyed every moment of it.


In France, every house has wine bottle racks; it is simply a tradition with them.


Each evening after diner one retires with a glass of wine and a few slices of cheese in front of the television or with a book. There, everyone collects wine in one form or another -- small wine racks or large wine bottle racks; every house prides itself with one. Of course, many houses have the cellars; maybe one day I will have a wine cellar too.


However, for now I am happy with my growing wine collection.


Enjoy a glass of wine everyday. And always remember to store it right, in wine bottle racks.


Cheers!

Wine Project Items For Viewing

Joseph Phelps - "Insignia"


"The 2001 Insignia (an 18.000 case blend of 89% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Petit Verdot, and 3% Merlot) is an inky/purple-colored effort representing a return to the superb quality of such vintages as 1997. Aged in 100% new French oak, this dry red California wine reveals gorgeous aromas of melted licorice, creme de cassis, liquid minerals, and hints of chocolate and spice box. The finish is long, full-bodied, opulent, and voluptuous. Considerable tannin is largely concealed by the lavish richness, extract, and glycerin. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2020+."
