I made my own wine! I went to 'Water 2 Wine' in Brookfield with my girlfriends Rebecca, Andrea & Allison and we had a BLAST. We were able to sample lots of lots and LOTS of wines off of their menu which offered a wide selection of reds, whites, roses, sweet and dry wines. The four of us decided on a Cranberry Chianti and the wine making began.... We moved over to the wine making section of their store and worked with Larry. He taught us what ingredients to add and when, and then after some vigorous stirring and the addition of his secret Water 2 Wine ingredients, we were ready to ferment. Our little creation is still in the process of fermentation at the time I am typing this, so we are very excited to return to Water 2 Wine to begin the bottling and corking process. We were able to not only create our own wine, but also our own custom wine labels! My sister Casey helped us to create 4 distinct designs which suited all of our tastes. Once the bottling, corking and labeling is complete, we will each leave with 7 bottles of our wine. I'm looking forward to enjoying my Cranberry Chianti creation all summer long...
