How long does it take, to make wine?
Patience is a virtue. This cliche probably applies to winemaking better than it does to any other activity. That doesn’t mean that it’ll be 5 years before you find out if a small oversight you made today ruined your whole batch. In fact, many concentrate kits recommend a 28 day process from start to finish. Once it’s in the bottle, the wine can be aged for a month or two and then consumed. This is acceptable, but better wine really can be made just by adding some time to the fermentation and bottle-aging processes. 3 months in the fermentor will usually make a better wine than one month. And 6 months in the bottle will generally be better than 1.
