Winemaking Tips

One of the reasons for the existence of the Contra Costa Wine Group, and why it was founded, is to give home wine makers a forum to share their resources and knowledge and to provide home wine makers with educational opportunities. To that end, there are several articles listed below that are helpful to anyone, from the curious browser, to the advanced wine maker. These articles are written by some of the most knowledgeable minds in the winemaking industry. Many of these articles were contributed by George Vierra. Mr. Vierra is a consultant to wine makers and wineries and can be reached at gjvnapa @ sbcglobal.net. (no spaces)

If you have an article you would like to submit to the library, please email it to the webmaster using the link at the bottom of this page.
