In December 2006, Nancy and I Bottled my home-made wine at Vintners Cellar Winery.
Kenn joined us too. We had way too much fun.

|
| First we tasted wine to determine what we wanted to make. Irene Kokkinos, the owner, guided us through this process. |

| We had lots of fun with Irene tasting wine. |

I decided to make a Black Current Merlot and Ellen decided on a Verdicchio. |

 |
First we mixed the grape juice in sanitized containers with water and added the chemicals needed to properly ferment the sugars. |
|
|
|
|
| Testing and stirring to make sure the right amount of alcohol content will make the wine taste right. |

The winery is beautiful.
Below are the carboys where our wine is aging. In 8 weeks we will go back to bottle and add our own private labels. |
