Making wine is a hobby for me. I usually make fruit, veggie, and herb
wines. I'm in my 4th year, and still learning. I've been posting and
reading posts for over a year, almost two. It is a good mix of posters
here; professional, hobbyists, those who make wine from grapes, those of who
make wine from other things, and those who are into kit wines. There's also
many different levels from beginners to those who have been doing this for
many, many years.

Been making wine as a hobbyist since the mid 70's. (That is last century)
I make about 60- 80 gallons a year. about half from grapes and the rest
from fruit. Getting more into mead now.

Hello, my name is David and I'm an A.....

Just kidding. I am new to home wine making, just two years now. I am yet to
make a wine from real grapes but have done many grape kits, concentrates,
ciders and some fruits and veggies.

This list is great, I'm glad I found it. I finally have some people to talk
to about this stuff. My fiancé gets tired of hearing me babble about stuff
she doesn't understand and doesn't care to learn about. And none of my
friends are wine makers.

I'm a hobbyist who started brewing beer over ten years ago. It wasn't
until four years ago that I started making wine, and I make about 30
gallons a year using store-bought concentrates and juice, fresh fruit
from u-pick farms and farmer's markets, and - for the first time this
year - wine grapes. I began making mead, and using honey in some of my
wines and beers, about two years ago.

I am a software developer!

New hobby to me. Two months in, 15 gallons on the go and nothing drunk so
far - I am fascinated by the process.

I'm a hobbyist located in New Jersey, USA.

I've been at it for about 2 years. I started because I really
wanted to try dandelion wine and making my own seemed to be the
only way that would happen. I also make wine from the
wineberries (wild raspberries) that grow wild in abundance all
around me. And I do other non-grape wines - I like being able to
make wines that can't be found found in the local liquor store.
