    Have you ever made wine at home? I grew up watching my family making wine at home and this video brings beautiful memories

      @fredfable5655 Год назад +2

      Yes,... but watching only?
      When I was little, all the kids (after feet washing by Nona), were put to dance over the grapes...(actually, they put us to work!!!LOL)
      We also did:
      Prosciutto.
      Salame.
      e Passatta...
      And other italian style things.

    My family come from Furnari in Sicily, East of Palermo. I am 1st born in America. I am 65yo and I remember my Grandfather and my Uncles processing the grapes in the basement, crushing them in the press, putting them into the barrels, etc. My grandfathers wine was amazing. Me and all of my many cousins, grew up on his wine. I have not tasted anything like it since his passing many years ago. He was an amazing man; an amazing gardener, an amazing craftsman, and an amazing patriarch. He is missed to this day, by all that knew him. Thank you, Vincenzo, for bring back this memory...

      @vincenzosplate I have not tried to make my own wine yet, but I plan to. I am lucky to have 10 acres of land in Florida, zone 8b. I want to grow the right grapes, but I do not know what I am supposed to grow. I do make the sausage my Grandmother used to make. She did it by hand at the kitchen table with a little metal funnel and her thumbs. I use the machine. I also make the dried sausage. I also make the sauce my mother use to make. My mother is going to be 92 this December and she still drives to church down the road from her house every Sunday morning. My sauce is good, my meatballs are good, my sausage is good. I struggle to make the bread, though. I have to practice more. I really like that you tell people when they are not cooking Italian food correctly. There are so many. The best Italian food, is the Italian food made at home...

      @@lorvin5673 -- contact the U of FL -- they have a grape research center and they have produced at least a few new hot weather hybrids. They can advise you on what to plant.
      Warning -- you're not going to grow European varietals. It will be Muscadine, Scuppernong, and hybrids designed for the weather. Look for local wineries and taste their wines, to ensure it's what you want to grow.
      Regardless of that, look for a local homebrew store. You can get started in winemaking by getting a hardware kit and making wine kits.

    I make wine/cider/beer at home on a much smaller scale. It is very interesting to see how the same process is approached from a different perspective.
    That family grows their own grapes, which will transform into a unique wine. It also looked like this process used wild fermentation, making the end product even more unique.
    Would love to try this wine someday. Thank you for sharing this video.

    my family still makes wine like this every year, though we don't have all of that fancy equipment, just one giant barrel into which we use a hand crank press to smash the grapes, then it gets moved to smaller barrels in a cool area underground and left to ferment... later we use the remaining grape stalks and skins to make tuika :) (yes, we use the leftovers from making alcohol to make more alcohol)

    my mom started to make wine 4 years ago because my dad's friend inherited a little vineyard and didn't know what to do with all of the grapes that it produced :) We make it completely naturally and manually in the conditions of 3 bedroom flat and it comes out amazing every year. They started with just 30 litres and this year they'll get over 60 litres and now we don't know what to do with all the wine that we produce but at least we always have a great present for all of our relatives and friends 🤭 Before that I thought you can't make a homemade wine that actually tastes good, but yes you can! It's not easy, I don't think anyone can do it but it is definitely possible🤩

    All'asilo avevamo maestre davvero intraprendenti. Abbiamo fatto sia il vino (pestando gli acini, metodo super tradizionale, in classe), sia il pane (in un panificio vero, esperienza davvero straordinaria per un bambino), abbiamo raccolto le fragole in un'azienda agricola (mettendole poi sotto limone e zucchero per la conservazione e per fare poi la marmellata) ci siamo anche divertiti a fare dei talismani di argilla (cotti nel forno diventavano davvero resistenti tanto che li ho ancora).
    Sono gite che ricordo ancora oggi... dopotutto nelle scuole gite così sono davvero rare (anche se di gite belle ne ho fatte anche alle elementari con alcuni musei tipo quello Egizio e quello di Scienze Naturali, alle medie Salisburgo... alle superiori l'Etna... di certo molto più standard e meno incentrate sull'esperienza).
    Ad oggi a dirla tutta non bevo praticamente mai perché non mi piace il gusto (anche se un goccio di spumante a capodanno, un goccio di sake una volta ogni 3-4 anni lo bevo), ma uso comunque spesso il vino in cucina per sfumare i sughi/risotti e per la carne (il retrogusto che lascia il vino mi piace).
    Parentesi, qualche anno fa i miei genitori avevano anche un'orticello con un paio di vigne (2 di numero letteralmente). Facevano dell'uva fragola davvero buona.

      You can easily do this at home: press very ripe grapes with your hands (in gloves), put the pulp into a tank (could be plastic buckets) cover with lids and gauze so as no flies allowed, let it ferment for several days (depends on temperature), stir two times a day, in a temperarure about or a bit lower 20 degrees . Squeeze the juice with hands and gauze, put it into a glass or plasic bottles under water locks (!) to continue fermentation. Temperature lower 20 is better. When fermentation is over siphon the wine into another container, so you separate all the sediment from it. Close and store in cool place for three months minimum. Ready.

    • @BryanFazekas
      @BryanFazekas 8 месяцев назад +1

      It's not just one variety. Their wine is a "field blend", everything grown in the vineyard goes into the wine. Watch the video again -- there's white grapes in the blend and it's likely there are numerous reds. It's entirely possible the family doesn't know what varietals they are growing. When a vine dies, they get a new one (doesn't matter what) to fill the hole.
      This is traditional family winemaking whose purpose is to make a beverage for the family.
