Why Wine?

Everyone likes a glass of wine from time to time, and there are lots of us that like to make our own wine. This site is devoted to the home wine maker and is stocked with recipes that are available to be downloaded.

On the site you will find information on how you can make your own wine. Even if you are a complete beginner, the information here will help you get started.

Each of our wine recipes will tell you exactly what you will need to start making it, so that you are never short of anything part way through.

Wine From Other Fruit or Flowers

Whilst most wine you buy in the shops is made from grapes, you can make wine from most fruit, flowers and vegetables. This is the great thing about making wine, you will probably have something in your garden that you can pick and use. Even if you don’t have a garden, the local store or market will have fruit and vegetables throughout the year.

“Wine has been produced for thousands of years. There is evidence of wine in China from 7000 BC, Georgia from 6000 BC, Iran from 5000 BC, and Sicily from 4000 BC”

.. and it’s so simple to make it yourself.

If you want to know how to make wine from start to finish, have a look at the process that we go through to make a gallon of wine on our ‘How Do I Make My Own‘ tab at the top of the menu. This will give you the very basic information you will need to start your new wine making hobby.
