I've done a little bit of beer brewing and I'm considering doing a batch a of wine for an upcoming party.
Here's my I-have-no-idea-what-I'm-talking-about/newb question: how good is the wine before it goes into the bottle? Since most of this batch would be consumed at the party anyway, can I just skip the bottling process and serve it in bulk? I would use either a SS kettle with spigot or food grade plastic w/ a spigot to pour.
Although most of the people at the party like wine, I doubt any are connoisseurs... but I'd still like it to taste pretty good. If this is not feasible without bottling, I'll scrap this idea. Ideally, I'd like to make a white wine, but that would be subject to change based on recommendations any of you might have.
Edit: I forgot to mention that I would use a wine "kit", probably from NB.
