      I have just started 2 gallons of this off....
      Although, I couldn't get a hold of any blackcurrants
      I added some dried sloes instead.....so I hope it turns out ok

              Mine is bulk aging... Last time I tasted it was about a month ago.
              Very promising.
              Initial thoughts are I will be making it again

                Thread revival from beyond the grave!

                Well Spritzer, how did it turn out in the end after you aged it? does it compare to a neuf du pape or is it different but still excellent? I likes the look of it I does!

                  Yeah Spritzer do tell. I love Chateau Neuf du slurp. If your recipe get even an inkling of a CNdP, I'm trying it.

                    It is nice...
                    But I reckon it needs some more time........

                      A wine with that many ingredients and pulp fermented will always need a lot of time to come to maturity

                          Just wondering how the CNdP clone turned out. Might give it a go if it's good.
