My Dad who passed in 1995 made the best cherry wine. Our house in south Chicago had a pie type cherry tree in the backyard which was quite large. He did not bake and neither did my Mom. They also were born in the 20’s and never let anything go to waste. So he made cherry wine and bottled it in glass coke bottles, even keeping the 6 pack. It had amazing color, bouquet, and flavor. It was not a dry wine and it did not bother my stomach like every other wine I taste. I wish I had asked him for his recipe. I can still taste it.

Grew up on the far south side of Chicago, and luckily my dad, the best cook in the house, copied down his and MIL’s recipe for me. (My mom hated cooking and it showed!!)
