PIAGE 6, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 6,1980, WHITBY MRE PRESS Homemade wines; wm0es that are ready fast When it cornes right down bo it, plenty of peple are often interested in drinking - and making - a wine that has no pretention to Iullness of body and bou- quet, strength of chgracter or even brillance of colour. Any humble littie wine will do if it refreshes on a hot day, warms on a cold day, or simply soothes at any time. Nothing wrong with enjoying, and producing, something fairly ordinary. In fact, it s a commendable idea, especially if it can be dashed off in a hurry. There are such wines. No great claimns for them, and no apologies either. They do their job, which is straight forward refreshment, with- out fanfare, although a par- donable touch o! impudence may distinguish their per-. formance. And they sure are fast in developing. Like many guests, they arrive early and leave early. In the-case o! these early wines, "fast" means about three months from start of primary fermentation tw drinking. Primar fermen- tation is the normal period of six to ten days, de nding on temperature an sugan/ alcohol content. Then the procedure continues the same as for any "big" wine; racking mbt an enclosed secondary carboy, stoppered with a fermentation lock. And a second racking should follow within four weeks, accompanied by a pîass through a wine filter. Bottling can be done at two months, and a month of 6tagng" completes the wine. The secret to these wines is that they've been, in ef- fect, stretched out; the same respectable concentrate that would otherwise produce a fuller-bodied white wine, is diluted with up to 40% more water so that alcohol, tan- nin, ecid and body are al correspondingly lower. Low- er concentrations of these elements naturally lead to an abbreviated agfing period. And then a 10w level of sweetness is recommended to dominate the "edginess" of the acid'and tannin that is present. Alcohol level for a fast wine will be somewhere in the 8 - 10% range. Second- ary fermentation is allowed to run its course, roughly four weeks. Then the wine is filtered to speed up the clarification process (fIlter- ing devices are available economically for rent or purchase at mostwinemaker stores). Sugar or wine-sweet- ening preparations are added at this point, and the wine is ready for bottling. After a month in the bot- tde it's'ready for the table, light as a bird y et a treat to the eye and a bit of frivolity to the palate. Sev- eral white wine concentrabes lend themselves well to this accelerated process, includ- ing sorte of the outstanding Australian whites. What makes these wines particularly useful in the horne winemaker's cellar is that they can be trotted out on casual occasions thus presçrving your supply of older, more expensive wine. And, o! course, the lower alcohol content commends them for stand-up party use. Here's a recipe for revving up the wineniaking process, and delivering to you some- thing drinkable in three months. Television has been de- scribed as "chewing gum for the eyes"; these fast wines are ý"ping-pong for the pal- ate' . No hidden messages here; no exotic bouquet; no depth. What you see is what you get!ll But, really, that's just perfect for a good many occasions. cut tram Canada grade A beet round steak full1 suice lb. 2 21 rindless bacon bv the pîer.e bologna 500 g pkg. 1.68 IL.
