Default What should I call it?

I have started a batch of wine using these ingrediants:

2 cans welches white grape

64 ounces of apple cranberry juice

1 cup Orange Juice

1 cup chopped white raisins

Sugar

Enzyme

Nutrient

Acid Blend

What type of wine will it be and what do you think I should name it on the label?

Since apple is the predominate ingredient, you could go with something along that line like "Apple Blend " for instance. Depending what picture you go with on your label you could name it something to go with that and then list (apple wine) in very small letters some where else on the label. After all "Skeeter Pee" is nothing like the name might imply.

Default Crapepple

Actually since it has two cans of welch's concentrate and the raisins it is more grape than apple. It is two gallons. It is a light red in color. Maybe name it some kind of a blush?

Runningwolf, why do they tempt me to turn to the dark side?

That's funny...my first frozen concentrate wine I did almost exactly that! About 6 months it was not what I considered "wine", so I named it "Alcoholic Fruit Beverage" and made a purposefully generic B&W label (although made it a bit more attractive going with a "Lost" theme from the TV show my wife and I were enjoying at the time). After a year it really turned around though and became delicious and graduated to actual wine with a wine label.
