Vin de la maison de poissons

Today is the day - bottling the wine  It has been settling in the demi-johns for the past six months and now will enter a further six-month period laying down in bottles and hopefully ageing beautifully.  We already have this years' batch of grapes developing on the vine just outside the kitchen and it is with a great sense of satisfaction that we are now at this stage with our first batch. 

We have bottled 12 in total - a whole case from our own grapes!  We have re-used some bottles - sterilised of course (you can probably see that from the photo) - but I do have plans  for printing our own labels to put on them.  If we actually get to that stage, you'll be the first to know!

Cheers!

(By the way that is "wine from the house of Fish" for those of you that, like me, don't speak any French - thanks Google translate)
