VINE TO WINE

You've made various vegetable and fruit wines and now you want to go one better? You get yourself some vines and that's when your troubles start!!! This blog will cover it, warts and all, from start to finish, helping you to produce that dream wine from your own vines - sherry, port, or whatever floats your boat, in a not too arty-farty or fanatical way.

JUMPING THE GUN

Having inspected my vines this evening, I found there were one or two new buds and leaves showing, despite the few frosty nights of late.

This is all down to the relatively mild weather we are having.

It is a little early to be taking cuttings and doing any winter pruning on my vines, as this is usually done around Christmas time, sometimes in the new year, when the plant is fully dormant.

I was perhaps jumping the gun a little here, so that I could show any interested readers precisely what I do to take cuttings.

Perhaps next time.

The wine is still bubbling quite steadily, and there is not much to report on it really.

Till next time of.

George
