Ingredients




2 pounds berries
7 pints x  water
2 pounds sugar (to 1.090 -1.095)
1 teaspoon acid blend
1/2 teaspoon acid blend
1 teaspoon nutrient
1 campden crushed
1 pkt wine yeast

Preparation

1 Use ripe, sweet berries, and if possible pick after the first frost. Remove the stems, rinse off and drain the berries. Put in a nylon straining bag, crush and squeeze the juice into primary. Keeping the fruit in the bag, tie the top and place in the fermentor with all the remaining ingredients exept for the yeast, cover. After 24 hours add the yeast according to the directions on the package. Stir daily, squeezing the bag to extract more of the juice from the fruit. Rack after approx. 5 days and then again as necessary. Stabilize when the  2 I have never made this wine but I am itching to try as there are so many berries around that are just waiting to be picked. (As soon as the first frost hits - any day now.)
