I used inexpensive plastic containers for the initial fermentation, then racked to glass for continued fermentation, and will rack to glass at least once more for clarifying. Rather than using oak barrels, most DIY winemakers just use oak chips during the initial fermentation.

I'd say ... save your money on the barrels until you have the process down pat, and have enough grapes for a much bigger batch. Most people never get big enough to buy barrels. They're pricey. [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/frown.gif[/img]
