The weather’s turning colder. Winter is upon us, annual migrations are underway. That includes our “cellar” of homemade wines!
Storing the product of our wine making has not proven easy. As a half measure last winter I stowed the filled bottles in a corner of our guesthouse. Many bottles froze, despite being heavily insulated in cardboard, crumpled newspapers, and layers of thick quilts top and bottom. I continued to keep them there through last summer, but now, as freezing weather threatens, we decided to move them to warmer storage.
