Wine Making...Step One


One of my going away gifts from my Otis staff was a gift certificate from Water2Wine.  It is a winery in Houston that has wine tastings, wine classes and a wine making section.  We decided to try making wine...28 bottles to be exact.  The first step is to try their wine....Allen was such a great sport trying each wine to make sure we would enjoy it. 


We were getting 28 bottles so he really made sure we would like all aspects of the wine...from the taste to the smell.



While Allen was selecting the wine for us I was busy tasting their water.  As you can see I drank half a glass so it was pretty good.


After we chose the wine we wanted to make we went into another room to start making it.  We added a bunch of things to this large bucket and had to stir for a long time. 





Doesn't look that great right now but it is supposed to turn into yummy wine.



They were very busy and at one point we thought they forgot about us. So we took some more pictures of us having fun:)
 

 


 
 
The next step is to design our label and then bottle the wine. Should be complete by the end of September.  Stay tuned for the next blog on Wine Making....Step Two
