A pretty good raspberry harvest this year, so another batch of wine is in the works. I’m doing 20 lb (4lb/gallon) again since we have so many.

September 23rd, 2023 by Nate We had a very large plum harvest this year. Even after giving away numerous fresh plums and making lots of plum chips, canned plums, and pflaumenmus, I still had enough to make a new batch of wine.

We have great raspberry crop this year, so wine is on the menu again. I decided to try a batch with a bit more fruit (20 lb instead of the regular 15 lb) since we have so many berries and I won’t be able to freeze them all.

September 21st, 2022 by Nate Although our Italian Plum trees were looking pretty sparse we actually got a decent harvest this year, around 40 pounds total. I decided it was time to make another batch of plum wine.

August 27th, 2022 by Nate I decided to go blackberry picking and make a new batch of wine. After a few hours I had picked the 20 pounds I needed. The berries were the first of the season and not super ripe, but I think they should still give good flavor for the wine.

I decided to make another batch of Apfelwein. I had bought some cheap apple cider when it was on sale a few weeks ago, so I’m now getting around to making the wine.

I needed to clean out my freezer, and had quite a few raspberries. I had a total of 17 pounds of frozen raspberries, collected over the past couple years, which I will use to make this new batch of wine.

August 25th, 2019 by Nate I went out and spent around 3 hours picking blackberries since they are starting to get ripe, and I have now run out of blackberry wine. The berries seemed to be smaller this year, maybe it is a bit early in the season or they didn’t get enough water, so it took a while to get the amount I wanted. I ended up with 20 pounds of fresh blackberries to use for this wine.
