I'm new to this scientific art (though I don't apply a lot of science).
First wine was a disappointing kit in 2001, went to upstate NY grape juice
and two attempts at "country" wines before being contended with fresh CA
grapes.

Our household did ~50 gallons last year out of the ~100 our group did and
this year we're at 80 out of 150 gallons. I use grapes from the Lodi region
in CA. Namely the grapes are Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc,
Petite Syrah, Merlot, Zin, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Gris.

If you're near Athens, GA and would like to be involved, drop me a line
around August next year!

Hey Group.

I've been reading you for quite a while, and been wondering all the
time who the posters are. Professional Winemakers, Hobby-Winemakers,
or just interested alot in that topic?

I btw am german, studying winemaking in Austria.

Sorry for this a little off-topic post,
