Hippie--I too like a standalone blackberry wine. I still have 12 lbs of berries in the freezer that will become blackberry wine. I do like the way blackberry compliments merlot and vice versa. Who says you cant have it all!!! I know from another forum that you are very fond of blackberry. It is a hard wine to beat. I have never made the mist blend but perfer to pick my own berries and make my own blend. Guess it seems more like "mine" when I do it that way. Thanks for the welcome.Comment

New guy on the block
Hi there
I used to make wine many years ago when I lived in Scotland (some 30 years past) I now live near Macclesfield. For some reason I have taken the notion to try again. Things seem to have moved on a bit since then so I kicked of with a simple kit, bu talready I am getting twitchy to make some "different" wine.
I have found a bottle of Ocean Spray cranberry and mango cordial which the wife doesn't like, there are also some apples and pears which the family have not eaten.
... I feel another gallon coming on....
Great site... Keep up the good work

Hi Alan

no sulphites added so it ferments easily

Im in south eastern Kentucky... Do you guys know where I could get a kit for Muscadine wine? Thats a wine ive been wanting to make for a while but cant seem to locate a kit.. I can get the grapes but I have no way to crush them and there isnt anyone in this area that has one... thanksComment

No muscadine kits. You don't need a crusher. Get 6-8 pounds of muscadines per gallon of wine you want to make and freeze them for a few weeks in a deep freezer. They will mash very well when fully thawed if they are good and ripe to begin with.REBEL MODERATOR

Welcome Richie.
You mean like an aquarium heater? You should ferment your wines inside your home where the temp is between 65-75*F.REBEL MODERATOR
