She Needs It SWEET

Our first time back sweetening wine. It just turns out delicious. #muscadine #wine

[@karakrantz1391]

That wine is the most beautiful pale blush color! Enjoy.

[@KinfolkFarmofGeorgia]

Yes and tastes amazing

[@3CreekFarms]

Missed this one when it came out. Found it when searching through your channel this morn. CANNOT MISS your wine 🍷 videos my brother. Another excellent video. Great job. I could smell and taste it through the screen…

[@KinfolkFarmofGeorgia]

If you be good Santa Shane may bring you some lol

[@tammysarrazin7078]

so now tipsy and happy lol hugsssssss

[@KinfolkFarmofGeorgia]

Yep lol

[@BroqueCowgirlHomestead]

We use a heat gun to shrink the toppers on. Works great. I'm with Kim, I like it a little sweeter.

[@janicegranier2281]

Looks like you are a natural wine maker!

[@KinfolkFarmofGeorgia]

Lol I so hooked on it

[@judydrouhard2651]

They look beautiful. Who wouldn’t appreciate a gift like that. 🥰

[@KinfolkFarmofGeorgia]

Awesome thanks

[@gsuit2815]

I’m new to winemaking also but the guy teaching me always uses the wine instead of water for back sweetening. Makes more sense to me as long as you don’t boil it to kill the alcohol otherwise your diluting the wine with that extra water.

[@AuntieAnn]

Yep I agree with Kim! I love me some dessert wine 😉😆.... I'm not much of a wine drinker either, but when I do drink it I prefer it sweeter 👍... Hopefully after it settles for a while it will be exactly what she wants 👊

[@KinfolkFarmofGeorgia]

It's awesome lol 1 bottle down already

[@ThatStevenLouis]

Looks great!

[@KinfolkFarmofGeorgia]

Really good

[@walterchapman2884]

Neighbor you and the little lady are doing a lot of sampling! Sure is a pretty color. I think I could drink some of that and enjoy it!

[@KinfolkFarmofGeorgia]

Samples are the best part

[@walterchapman2884]

@@KinfolkFarmofGeorgia I heard that my friend!

[@TheHobbyFarmHomestead]

I have always wanted to make wine. I just don't have the time for it right now. You are doing a great job at it and I will be using your videos for info. keep up the good work!

[@KinfolkFarmofGeorgia]

Super easy and you can get the whole kit on Amazon really cheap

[@BobbiJo]

I hope y'all had a Happy Thanksgiving.

[@jdollar5852]

"This is her batch". She wants it sweeter. It often will sweeten up for several days as the sugar mixes in more and it usually tastes sweeter if you refrigerator it.

[@KinfolkFarmofGeorgia]

It tastes great for sure. Thanks for all your tips. For real. So hooked on this wine making lol

[@willisdockery3972]

Awesome have one for me 😆 Enjoyed as always

[@KinfolkFarmofGeorgia]

I say anything made with muskidines is fantastic 👌 I love the blush color. Great job Shane, hiya Kim.

[@KinfolkFarmofGeorgia]

Thanks and I agree

[@FallenArkansasVeterans]

Happy Thanksgiving Shane and Family, hope you had a blessed one.

[@KinfolkFarmofGeorgia]

Same to you guys. Have an awesome weekend

[@MyAlabamaFarmLife]

I agree, I love a sweet wine but very excited for you!

[@pennywillis8895]

You could make your own custom labels on the bottles or you could use wax and a stamp with your logo.

[@KinfolkFarmofGeorgia]

Kims working on some labels

[@panda18770]

I was in a grocery store that sold wine over the weekend. I looked for some muscadine wine but didn't see any. We can't raise those grapes here cause of the cold winters. So I may have to get someone to order a bottle for me.

[@KinfolkFarmofGeorgia]

Lol love your drive to find muscadines. Your the best.

[@PaffordHomestead]

The sugar will give it more alcohol 😉👍 get her drunk Shane 😂 great way to shrink wrap them Shane

[@KinfolkFarmofGeorgia]

Lol sure taste good

[@TheRedhawke]

The 500ml bottles look great. Prior to adding back sweetener how are you stopping fermentation so the bottles don’t explode ?

[@KinfolkFarmofGeorgia]

We add a campden tablet the day before and it kills all left over yeast. It's also been sitting for a long time in the carboy and all yeast is pretty much used up

[@pattyprice2644]

Hi Shane n Kim Now will that sweeten as it sits ? Will it also keep naturally sweeten on its own out of the grape That's awesome how you shrink wrapped

[@KinfolkFarmofGeorgia]

No clue lol first year making wine

[@crazycritterlady8788]

I think it very nice of you to make Kim a desert wine. That so sweet of you. 🍷🍷🍷

[@KinfolkFarmofGeorgia]

Awww thanks

[@edithnedrud6532]

Loved the vid. I do have a question…did you add anything to keep the yeast from activating again after back sweetening?

[@KinfolkFarmofGeorgia]

Yes a Campton tablet 24 hrs before

[@gotchacovered9038]

It will settle in the bottle and pour clear

[@adamagent2002]

Just bottled my first batch, 2nd one is in the fermenter.

[@KinfolkFarmofGeorgia]

Awesome I'm trying some apple now and it's not doing to good lol. I might just stick with the grapes

[@alexlarsen6413]

You were in fact spot on in being careful with adding sugar, Shane! Thing is, sugars meld and blend in during the aging process, so it's always good to stop just short of what you think would be perfect while back-sweetening. Speaking from my own experience and the experiences of many other winemakers I know...I can't tell you how many times we went: Yep!! That's totally it, perfect, we got it...and it really was perfect at that time. However, oftentimes you open up a bottle 6 months later....and it can be sickly sweet.

[@gotchacovered9038]

It’s so sweet watching you both. To sweet or not to sweet😂

[@KinfolkFarmofGeorgia]

Lol

[@jamesvatter5729]

Did I miss something? You backsweetened, but I didn't see how you stopped the fermentation so the backsweetening doesn't restart the fermentation.

[@KinfolkFarmofGeorgia]

I forgot to show me add Campton tablet at the end of video.
