|
Harvesting Your Red Wine Grapes - The first step in making red
wine is to have the grapes perfectly ready to be picked. They
need to be harvested not only at the proper time in their life
cycle, but also at the right time of day to ensure the acids and
sugars are all at the right balance for the wine.
Red wine grapes should contain enough sugar to be considered
ripe and be able to attain the alcohol content you are aiming
for. They must also have the right balance of acids. This means
"hang-time" on the vine until the grapes have met the proper
quality factors. A sugar content of 24 Brix at harvest will give
you about 12% alcohol.

contemporary inspiration. Of course, cuisine fusion is not a new
thing. Cuisines have always been fused and developed according
to the global movements of cultures.
Many ingredients now used in Spanish cooking were introduced by
other cultures: Phoenician and Greek, Roman and Moorish. There
