Dave is gearing up for another wonderful winemaking season for wine lovers and wine enthusiasts.<\/p>\n<p>Yesterday an email from Dave Zuchero, winemaker at Tin Lizzie Wineworks, reminded us\u00a0that grape arrival at Tin Lizzie is going to happen soon. Dave procures ultra premium grapes from the renowned <a href=\"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/california\/stagecoach.php\">Stagecoach Vineyards<\/a> and other vineyards in California. Wines are primarilty produced in French or American oak barrels. If\u00a0 a barrel of wine is too much for you to contemplate storing, then ask about making a 1\/4 or 1\/2 barrel.<\/p>\n<p>If you live in the Baltimore-Washington metropolitan area, now is your chance to take part in being a winemaker. If you are curious and want to know more contact Dave at <a href=\"mailto:dave@tinlizziewineworks.com\">dave@tinlizziewineworks.com<\/a>\u00a0or visit the Tin Lizzie Wineworks website.<\/p>\n<p>Tomorrow night, September 7, 2016, Dave is planning a special event to showcase the styles of wines that would-be winemakers can make at Tin Lizzie in Clarksville, Maryland.<\/p>\n<p>Participants can participate in producing Premium, Super Premium and Ultra Premium wines.<\/p>\n<p>The Ultra Premium grapes\u00a0still available for would-be winemakers\u00a0 include Malbe\/Syrah and Magic Barrel &#8211; a blend of Caberent Sauvignon, Merlot, Malbec and Syrah.<\/p>\n<p>Ultra Premium grapes available\u00a0include: a Super Tuscan Blend, with grapes from Lanza Vineyards and a \u00a0Zinfandel\/Petite Sirah Blend.<\/p>\n<p>If you prefer ros\u00e9s, at Tin Lizzie it is possible to produce a ros\u00e9 made with Chenin Blanc, Riesling and Grenache.<\/p>\n<p>If you have always dreamed of making your own wine, Tin Lizzie presents the\u00a0opportunity for you to start. Or if you really want to learn how those beautiful clusters of grapes hanging in the vineyard end up in a bottle of luscious wine, contact Dave.<\/p>\n<p>Terry and I have made wine for three vintages with Dave at Tin Lizzie Wineworks. Dave is friendly and knowledgeable and easy to work with.<\/p>\n<p>If you have any desire to learn about wine, Tin Lizzie offers a great way to learn the process and have fun.<\/p>\n<p>Cheers!<br \/>\nKathy<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"gallery\">\n\t<dl class=\"gallery-item gallery-columns-3\">\n\t\t<dt class=\"gallery-icon\"><a href=\"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/2016\/09\/06\/decisions-now-is-the-time-to-make-your-own-wine\/konica-minolta-digital-camera-10\/\" title=\"Wine grapes from California arrived at Tin Lizzie in Clarksville, MD\" rel=\"attachment\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/962016bPICT0045-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Wine grapes from California arrived at Tin Lizzie in Clarksville, MD\" class=\"gallery-image attachment-thumbnail\" \/><\/a><\/dt>\n\t\t<dd class=\"gallery-caption\">Wine grapes from California arrived at Tin Lizzie in Clarksville, MD<\/dd>\n\t<\/dl>\n\t<dl class=\"gallery-item gallery-columns-3\">\n\t\t<dt class=\"gallery-icon\"><a href=\"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/2016\/09\/06\/decisions-now-is-the-time-to-make-your-own-wine\/konica-minolta-digital-camera-9\/\" title=\"Dave Zuchero, winemaker at Tin Lizzie Wineworks\" rel=\"attachment\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/062006aPICT0050-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Dave Zuchero, winemaker at Tin Lizzie Wineworks\" class=\"gallery-image attachment-thumbnail\" \/><\/a><\/dt>\n\t\t<dd class=\"gallery-caption\">Dave Zuchero, winemaker at Tin Lizzie Wineworks<\/dd>\n\t<\/dl>\n\t<dl class=\"gallery-item gallery-columns-3\">\n\t\t<dt class=\"gallery-icon\"><a href=\"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/2016\/09\/06\/decisions-now-is-the-time-to-make-your-own-wine\/konica-minolta-digital-camera-8\/\" title=\"Making your own wine begins with destemming grapes.\" rel=\"attachment\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/962016PICT0060-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Making your own wine begins with destemming grapes.\" class=\"gallery-image attachment-thumbnail\" \/><\/a><\/dt>\n\t\t<dd class=\"gallery-caption\">Making your own wine begins with destemming grapes.<\/dd>\n\t<\/dl>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gallery\">\n\t<dl class=\"gallery-item gallery-columns-3\">\n\t\t<dt class=\"gallery-icon\"><a href=\"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/2016\/09\/06\/decisions-now-is-the-time-to-make-your-own-wine\/962016illuminatus1\/\" title=\"One of the wines we produced at Tin Lizzie Wineworks, a teaching winery facility in MD\" rel=\"attachment\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/962016illuminatus1-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"One of the wines we produced at Tin Lizzie Wineworks, a teaching winery facility in MD\" class=\"gallery-image attachment-thumbnail\" \/><\/a><\/dt>\n\t\t<dd class=\"gallery-caption\">One of the wines we produced at Tin Lizzie Wineworks, a teaching winery facility in MD<\/dd>\n\t<\/dl>\n<\/div>\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\" class=\"owbutton\" src=\"http:\/\/www.onlywire.com\/button\" title=\"Decisions!
