Hey everyone!
So, I have been making beer, meads and ciders for a few years now - close to 10. However, I had some personal revelations recently, and want to learn a lot more about traditional wine-making (from grapes).
I figured the easiest way to kick things off is the same way I got started brewing beer - buy a kit and make some homebrew!
But, unlike beer kits where it is generic ingredients that the LHBS assembles into kits, nearly all of the kits for wine are name-brand (companies like Grand Cru, etc). Are there any kits to avoid?
The other option is juice from our local vineyards, but the prices are pretty steep, especially since I have no knowledge about blending.
