Raspberry wine

Add sugar, water, yeast, etc. - then wait for the magic to happen!


They're sitting next to a couple gallons made from fresh McIntosh apples that I made into applesauce. Those in turn are sitting next to 6 gallons of pumpkin-raisin wine, almost ready to bottle and distribute:


The 2010 wine season is in full swing!
