lord_casek Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 I finally decided after many years of much talk about it Im making my own wine. My parents place in GA has two lines of vines that the guy before them used to make wine from. I visited last weekend and after some research the Reds were called Muscadine and the whites are called Scuppernongs, both in the same family. I guess its a popular wine made along the eastern side of the US. Of course nothing as popular as the usually seen varietals. So being that the grapes were free I harvested about 35 pounds and got about a hair more than a gallon of juice. Got my supplies and Im a week into the fermentation process. Im excited and definitely going to continue after this batch whether it be a failure or success. Anyone else have this as a hobby whether it be beer or wine? Muscadine wine is a southern tradition. Scuppernongs are good to munch on. Like big juicy grapes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
