Anyone in Souther Ontario have any comments, pro or con re Festa Juice. I know
they are sold at a number of locations and their head facility is near where I
live.

I usually make wine from kits--tried Vin Bon juice and it was terrible.

Just wondering what anyone has to say about Festa (Magnotta)

I've used Cullota(sp?) and another brand sold by the local Portuguese
shops. They are very competitively priced, so much so that a bottle of
white runs about C$1.50. I've had a great experience with their
Riesling... following standard practices for that varietal (cooler
ferment, etc)

I'd wager that the red juice is steam extracted, and I feel that it
won't produce the same kind of red wine most people are used to.

I HTH even though it's not directly about festa juice.
