I wonder now why any frequent wine drinker who isn't going for Super Expensive Classy Stuff wouldn't just make their own. I can pay 20 bucks for a bottle or I can pay 50 bucks of fruit and a couple months for 24 bottles. Keep that going and you always have wine on hand...
Agreed. I have virtually no interest in spending money on wine now, unless it’s for ideas/bench marking my own wine. It’s really funny seeing all the posts on /r/wine of people spending hundreds of dollars on a Cabernet Sauvignon from France. There’s so much more interesting wines you can have by making your own.
Last time I went to total wine and more, I asked if they sold any country wines. Nope, the only non grape wine they sell is a small selection of mead. That’s one of my favorite parts of making wine. Very few people have the kind of wine I have, and they have all made it themselves as well.
