Winemaking for Beginners

On Wednesday, May 30, from 6:00-7:30 p.m., the Massillon Public Library presents “Winemaking for Beginners,” presented in the library’s auditorium by home winemaker Tim Pawlak.

The popularity of winemaking is certainly not a new fascination, since this history of wine making probably began with the history of civilization itself. The earliest known wine production may have been in the region of Iran as long ago as 6000 BC, and there is evidence of domestication of the vine in the Near East from around 3000 BC.
