Wine???????

I recently purchased a vineyard in southern France.





I possess no knowledge of the measurement of time taken to grow, harvest the grapes and conseuquently wine.





If someone could educate me on the process i would be very much obliged.|||Yeah . . . .





So you鈥檙e just into pissing money away and you have none left to hire true winemakers and grape growers, so you turned to Yahoo Answers to get your 3 paragraph crash course?? In that case, I just cloned a dinosaur in my kitchen . . . . Woo Hoo!





What happened to your Cambridge acceptance to get a law degree and your other promising future as a doctor???





I call B.S. on this one!|||This is quite a weird investment - buying something you dont know. Anyway, try to visit the site below to get some info on your issue.

|||i cannot help you sorry

and i have to say chilean wine is the best you can buy





yummy yummy yummy|||If you really just bought a vineyard, you need to go hire someone that knows how to run it and learn from them. In about five years you can probably go out on your own.|||The Great Gazoo is right. Don't expect to make a profitable vineyard out of what you can learn online or out of a book. Hire an experienced viticulturalist to manage the vineyard and winery for you. You can pick up the skills and knowledge over time.|||i hope you like potatoes|||Take all the grapes you harvest and eat them, your piss will make excellent wine.|||Growing grapes, talk to the area farmers, for making wine, the grapes need to be pressed to get the juice out of them, then a yeast needs to be added so that the yeast, a small "critter" can eat the sugars in the grape juice, and "pee" out alcohol as a waste from them into the solution. At about 10% by volume, there will be enough alcohol to kill most of the little critters, and then it needs to be treated to kill any left over. A visit to a distillery would be a great start to become acquainted with the complete process. What you might want to do is make a contract with a local distillery to manage the vineyard for you, thus relieving you of the work to grow and produce the wine yourself. There might already be a distillery waiting to hear from you with that thought already in mind.|||Why would you purchase a vineyard... if you know nothing about grapes. That's just amazing to me, Good Luck.|||Ho boy....Yikes!





You need a vine master, my friend.





The French have been developing their wine development process for millenia, especially in the South of France. I'm talking ancient Rome here....!





You need to consult a vine master or hire a vinyard consultant to show you what varieties you should grow.





If you have a history of your property and know what's been grown there before...then grow that!|||You purchased a vineyard in France and know nothing and are now on Yahoo Answers?
