This particular reminder can never be stressed and repeated enough. It is one of the most crucial in all wine directions. Always maintain cleanliness in your workstation whether it be your kitchen, your backyard or wherever it is that you choose to make your own homemade wine. When we say cleanliness, it does not only mean that your kitchen counter or work station must be physically clean like spotless and all that but chemically speaking, it must be clean too! This means, everything must be sanitized including all equipment and surrounding areas. Working in a sterilized area will ensure that no bacteria will come enter or mix with your concoction and airborne yeasts and vinegar flies won’t be around to ruin your mixture and turn it to vinegar. You will know more about this as you go through with the wine making process.
What is Margaux Wine?
Posted by: | CommentsIt is with a happy note that I share to you where it came from. It was made all the way up north, a region that is a far cry from its friendly neighbors, Haut-Médoc. Margaux gives high esteem to its marshlands, though they only have a few, since it is home to the name-sharing premier cru, at the south of St.-Julien. Margaux wine is very distinct and has a very unique taste from those of the Bordeaux most probably because of the very obvious geographical distance it has from its neighboring regions.
