Saving's. Did you know when you buy a bottle of wine at retail (with your hard earned after-tax dollars) that a large percentage of the purchase price goes to various taxes and levies? Sour grapes indeed. Why not get great tasting wine for 1/4 to 1/3 of what you'd pay at retail?

Fewer Preservatives. When you make wine - it contains less than 1/5th the preservatives of commercially produced wines. Large wine producers tend to over preserve wine to reduce spoilage. We all know - too many preservatives are not good for your health. Plus, many people are allergic to preservatives.
