I became interested in wine making a few years ago, and I especially like to ferment what I grow. I’ve got ten potted grape vines in my backyard that I treat as bonsais below the soil and conventional grape vines above the soil. I also have a “bonsai orchard” with apple, cherry, and plum trees. I’ve made wine from all those fruits, and now I want to grow them myself. If there’s sugar in it, I’ll probably try and ferment it, so I make mead<\/a> from honey. If it hasn’t got sugar, I might try anyway. My oregano wine<\/a> got off to a rocky start, but eventually fermented to dryness. I write about what I grow and ferment, and how I do it, in this blog.<\/p>\n My photos and words are my own.
