Club Dubya - My new Online Community

Check out Club Dubya. My newest experiment in "Social Networking" Call me Naive, but I would like to create a non-corporate online community with an emphasis on the word "Community" Maybe I'll even stick in a Wine making section if there is enough interest. It is still being worked on, but feel free to drop in and say Hi. There is already a few members and we are growing.

Create Your Own Wine Recipe

Just a little article I found.


Making your own wine making recipe can be a matter of establishing and combining a lot of your personal tastes into one concise segment of ingredients and seeing if they work with a wine. Many people fall under the stigma of creating a wine recipe that ends up taking the art of wine making recipe creation too seriously. Do not be afraid to experiment with what you have at your disposal and create your own wine recipe from scratch, using some of the ideologies of other wine corporations and meshing them with your own sentiments.

Part of making your own wine is making something your own. Nothing symbolizes that independent construction like doing something your own way and shunning all critical acclaim, so do not shy away from adding some other ingredients to wine that belie a certain traditional outlook and turn the industry on its side. You want to maintain a focus with your wine, but you should never let the outcome dictate the process as sometimes they are two different things in the end and can wash over the whole process with a gloss of doubt and fear.

Try Things Out

Do not be afraid, as mentioned, to produce some of your own sensibilities and place them in your wine making recipe. You are to take ownership of the process as that is why you are considering it in the first place. Do not shy away from including some unorthodox mentalities in your wine making process and in the recipe itself, as these sentiments may be what separate your wine from other wines on the market. You never know what you could end up with as you experiment with wine and discover tastes and aromas out of items you never thought would function well together.

So with your wine making recipe, you should be integrating a whole series of items that could flow with the grape base. Try chocolate hints and other flavour hints to focus on delivering a dessert wine. Try adding certain herbs to make your wine making recipe completely functional with certain foods. You can be as narrow or as diverse with your wine process as you want as it is your process in the end and you are the one unleashing your wild notions of wine to the world. You take responsibility for all of the insanity that could result of your wine making recipe.
