Next up….Riesling

After bottling the Pinot Noir, we got started on making the Riesling.

Image

So far, it is the same process as before. 

Image

The package of bentonite that is added to 4 cups of hot water.

Image

Looks pretty nasty before it is dissolved, huh?

Image

Just keep stirring, just keep stirring….It has be nice and dissolved before the juice is added.

Image

Adding the concentrated juice along with distilled water to get it to the 23 liter mark.   We did have a small sample of the juice.  It was OMG good!

Image

Then we tested its gravity.  It tested 1.1 in the dessert wine.

Image

Adding yeast to the party.  Those yeast…..they sure know how to party 😉

A Note From Abroad

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sailaway from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” ~ Mark Twain
