Hedgerow port day 11 - racking off

Considering how old it is, tastes lovely, very full bodied, not quite dry. Estimate the ABV to be 17-18%. Definitely doing this outside next time, looked like one of Dexter's investigations before I cleaned it up.

Hedgerow Port Day 9 - straining

Added finings also as I wanted to get the wine clear quickly. Didn't make too much mess although will be doing this bit outside next time.
