Peach Wine

I love peach wine. The last batch of peach wine I made was one of my favorites. Really good peach wine must be made with the ripest, juiciest fruit. Canned peaches? Don't bother.

My neighbors have a peach tree in their yard. I have to admit that their fruit looks spectacular this year. I'd love nothing better than to raid that tree and make a batch of wine. Even the squirrels are raiding the tree. I see them daily running back to my yard with a large peach in their mouth, savoring the sweet flavor. Half eaten peaches strewn all over like forgotten nuts.


Watching the squirrels raiding the tree has given me the urge to make another batch of Peach Wine. I will have to purchase my peaches, which is okay. I've been sampling peaches from my local grocer to test the quality. I'll do my best to find some really good fruit and hope for the best. In the end, that's all I can do. My plan is to buy enough fruit to make 3-gallons. I'll let you know how it turns out.
