Awesome; welcome our ‘Wife’. Both, I’m from the states (my husband is Nigerian). Born and raised in Chicago, Illinois. My family and parents moved to AZ almost 20 years ago and I followed shortly after. I love it here, beautiful warm weather year round and I’m close California, Vegas, Mexico and Hawaii. Lots of non-stop flights to places around the world (and the east coast) so I’m able to travel fairly easy. [/quote] 1 Like |

Curiouscity: How long do u age ur wines? |
Re: My Trip To “Wine Country” | Napa Valley, California by Curiouscity(m): 7:23pm On Mar 01, 2021 |
AnthonyAk: It depends on the kind of fruits used. There are wines that won't benefit from any aging, such meads (honey wines). But most reds do well with age. The minimum is 6 months. But I have 2.5 years that is yet to be tasted. I also have some that I am targeting 10 - 20 years, but these are special. 1 Like |

AnthonyAk:I do small batches for now. So, I only have one small oak barrel. Mead is for the royals. It has a very interesting history, and very delicious too. I am currently experimenting aging with earthen wares (qvevri) like it was done in the medieval Greece. 2 Likes |
