homemade wine update

Right now we have Niagara grape (white) bottled and aging, will be drinkable by September. To be honest, I did sample some already, its raw and wonderful and I think will be pretty darn excellent when its aged.
Black currant (in the secondary bottles)
Cranberry apple (in the secondary bottles)
Dandelion (in the primary fermenter)

Its strawberry season and I think we'll go picking Monday morning before I open the shop.
I also have three big bags of rhubarb in the freezer. We thought it would be better to go with strawberry as our next, and as soon as that goes into the big carboy, that would free up the primary fermenter for the rhubarb. Or raspberries....and pretty soon it will be cherry season, then apples and pears...
