Remember all those grapes!!


Remember all those grapes!!

We had over 150 bunches of grapes, mostly red, and a few white, decided to make grape juice, bit slow and fiddly, but, oh the taste!! so worth the effort.

Lil it tastes better than wine, and this is from an avid wine drinker...... Amy it is rather a fiddly process but worth the effort. Ha ha Sticki.....

Crissue, lol. Dottydaisy2, I admire your work and for sure you drank one of the healthiest drinks in the world.
Now I will be physician who has some vineyards family tradition - the most healthiest vines - regarding CVS - are red vines grown in countries with a lot of sunny days. So far, the favourite for more then 1000 years is Cabernet Sauvignon.
