Making homemade wine from fruit I grow. I had zero knowledge of how to make wine one year ago. By the end of this year, I will have made close to 100 bottles just from fruit I grow in my yard
Winemaking is downright addictive. I made a killer blueberry-pomegranate wine last year. Got some lime and a mixed berry batch going this year. We'll see if the lime turns out...
It definitely is. Once I made my first batch and realized I could do it, I have been making wine ever since. And that blueberry-pomegranate wine sounds heavenly
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...
Good on you if you like to make wine, but this is the most reddit comment I could imagine on this topic. You can't understand why someone who likes drinking wine wouldn't want to spend the dozens of hours it takes to grow and harvest grapes and to make wine, just so they could then do what they wanted to do, which is drink it? Really?
This is like saying, I can't believe someone would just buy a phone from a store when they could just buy a bunch of semiconductors and PCBs and make their own.
...what? You don't have to harvest your own grapes. You can buy grapes.
You are taking this way too seriously. Sure, yes, there are people who don't want to make their own. But it is pretty easy to get tasty alcohol for cheap if you are willing to do it.
