The average Italian makes his own wine as a matter of course-just as one might make a cup of coffee. And the same might soon be said. of Britain and America. Since the '45 war there has been a tremendous revival of home winemaking -yes, a revival 1 As far back as 1812 a Mr R. Worthington wrote a book on home-made wines; and virtually every cookery book before that included several wine recipes.
Although formerly the preserve of the countryman, home winemaking is now attracting the interest of thousands of town-dwellers, and scientific developments are making such wine better and easier to produce.
How much do you pay for a bottle of wine ? The home winemaker can produce his own for as little as a few pennies a bottle-wine that is comparable with the commercial variety. No longer need you wonder what the next batch of wine you buy will be like. The home winemaker, after a few tasty experiments, consistently makes his wine how he likes it with just the right amount of colour, dryness and to the strength he prefers. And although grape is the accepted king of fruits, can you be sure that you would not prefer Apple or Elderberry wine, without first trying them ?
This book lists all the common fruits for home winemaking, plus some of the more exotic types now available in tins, such as guava some recipes for making wines similar to those you buy-such as Burgundy-but from fruits other than grape; and some old recipes going back over two hundred years. All excellent, all intriguing, all cheap and all easy to make.
