Hello one and all,
after a looooooong hiatus (too long), I will be getting back into home
winemaking again. I am now in the Phoenix, AZ area. If anyone can recommend
a good/great winemaking supply shop, that would be terrific (but please not
in Glendale -I'm SE of Phx). I am also looking for sources for 5-gallon
frozen fruit, such as raspberries and blackberries. Have just moved into a
new home (which we own) from a home that we were renting for over a year. So
I am getting the itch to ferment some berries, as I'm late in the game for
grapes, here.
Still unpacking boxes. Yuck. My advice to anyone in their 20's is to not
collect _anything_ unless it has to do with winemaking!
So to all the old gang, Trevor, Knightrunner, etc, I'm baaaack!
