Our Fine Wines

Shown here are several of our fine homemade wines. We have a Merlot which came from a premium wine kit and was our first homemade wine. The Merlot was made in May 2010 and is ageing nicely. We just need to exercise self-control from consuming it before it is perfectly aged. Since making the Merlot we have made a great Bourgeron Rouge and a White Verdicchio. Both since have been consumed and were very tasty. We noticed that the Verdicchio after 4 months wasn't as great as it tasted 2 months old. The Bourgeron Rouge was a little green tasting after a month but developed great taste after 4 months. We could have made more of this one! Yesterday we bottled a Bordailles Blanc and a Bergamis rouge. These 2 wines will be used at my Inlaw's 50th wedding anniversay in July.
