Hello folks,

My Uncle and I have been making wine for the past 10 years or so. This year we will be making our merlot, cab grape blend. We were also thinking about making a Super Tuscan.

Would any of you care to share a recipe? I was thinking of blending the following grapes Sangiovese, Cab. S. Merlot, and Syrah. I would also like to add that we press our own grapes instead of purchasing the juice.

Thanks in advance,
Joe
 
I simply ferment them together. This combo has done well for me..

80% San Gio
10% Petit Sarah
10% Merlot

I find that san gio can be a little light in color for my tastes. The Petit Sarah and Merlot really help color and also bring a lot to the table in the way of flavor.
