This website is a favorite among those who make homemade wine. If you are a novice or an experienced wine maker, you will benefit from this site.
Recently my husband and I were visiting a friend who makes his own wine. Living in the US south, there aren't many vineyards from which to buy grapes. We asked where he purchased his juice and equipment. "Grapestompers!" he cried. "It's the best site I've found for supplies."
This is a wonderful site for those who want to begin making wine. The site has a seven step tutorial on making wine. It begins with selecting supplies and equipment and continues through bottling and corking. (Step 8, drinking your wine, will be added soon.)
They have an extensive online catalog, with excellent concentrates. There are 11 different Chardonnay concentrates available! There are four different Barolo concentrates. The number and variety of concentrates is amazing.
If you are adventerous, you can try the various recipes available at Grapestompers.com. Many have been submitted by site readers/customers. I'm not certain about the "Teabag wine."
The site includes a useful glossary for winemaking. Do you know what "bottle sickness" is? Just part of the useful information for anyone looking to take up the hobby of winemaking. I raise a glass of my friend's Chambourcin in honor of Grapestompers.com
