I just wanted to send this note of thanks to all the regular contributors to
this group, especially those who answered my getting started questions a few
months ago.

Today I bottled a chardonnay that I started from a kit a few months ago.
I'm shocked by how good it is. Clear, crisp & dry. After this success,
it's going to take extra will power to remain patient with the various reds
that I have aging in the basement!

Thanks again!
Dave

We should all give thanks to contributors on this side occasionally. I
certainly get a lot out of the answers to my questions and the answers to
others.

I concur that many of the kit whites that I have made are ready to drink
immediately after bottling with no aging at all. In fact, I have found that
a year later they may be on the decline.
