Answer 2

making wine is really easy what I would suggest is that you read up on it from an internet search then when you get ready to make it, follow the instructions exactly as you are given. different yeast produce different results and alcohol content. A friend of mine uses champain yeast for his beer and if you drink 2, you will see things. I have been making spirits for years and all of it has turned out well. I would urge you to make sure everything is spotlessly clean and use distilled water when you need to add any. Tap water will leave a disagreeable taste to the wine. also, wine can be bruised by mishandling. Most of it is light sensative and the bottles can explode so put them in a box, where they are temperature stable, and cover the top with another box incase they explode. some people use a wash tub in the basement if you have one. I always placed them in a small cellar made for that. the process it self is basically getting grape juice, (you can squeeze the grapes which is best) add the yeast to the firmintation chamber (I use a 6 gallon water bottle made of class) allow to ferment until it stops bubbling through the water gap prime with a bit of sugar and cap, store, age, drink enjoy

Answer 3

I would go with a simple Chianti. This is made with sangiovese grapes, so sometimes the bottle will say "Sangiovese" instead of "Chianti." If you and your guests aren't too particular, you can get a drinkable bottle for $10 and under. Go to your local wine shop and ask for a recommendation. Otherwise, a safe bet would be Gabbiano Chianti Classico.

Answer 4

A good hearty red wine. I'd suggest a cabernet, merlot, or shiraz. Go to your local market and ask the person who orders wine for the store. They are quite informative and will know what specific vintage will work for you. Good luck and enjoy!

Answer 5

Hands down Ruffino Chiante. It sells for cheap at Trader Joes. I make home made lasagna all the time, I've found it to have the best pairing.

Answer 6

As long as the sauce is not really bland, I love Yellowtail Chiraz with anything with red sauce (lazagna, spaghetti, ravioli, etc.). It's under $10/bottle, and very yummy. It has enough flavor to stand up to spicy food, but doesn't overpower.

Answer 7

italian sparkling wine....it is light...sweet and not overpowering! either that or maybe pino grigio eco domani...that one is a little stronger and is a white wine.... i myself don't go for the strong wines as much...but a spoomonti i think is what sparkling italian wwine is also called!
