Is it necessary to check home-grown grapes that will be used to make wine?

Question:

Shalom, I’d like to use the grapes from our home garden to make wine. Do I need to check them as per Rav Vayeh’s instructions?

I’m asking because the end process of making the wine is pour the liquid through a filter, which should catch any bugs.

Thank you very much for your extremely helpful site.

Answer:

If the end process will be that the wine is filtered well, then it doesn’t have to be checked beforehand. There is however a preference though t wash them well beforehand

Best wishes
