Good morning! Me and the wife started five gallons of pear wine tonight. Our plan is to to separate it into five one gallon carboys after the primary so that we can fortify/infuse each one with different things. In one of the gallons, my wife would like to fortify it with a Brandy.
Since neither me or my wife are "Brandy People", does anyone have a good suggestion for a brand of brandy to use? Or, in your opinion, does it really matter since it is being mixed with a gallon of pear wine?
I know it is probably to taste, but does anyone who has fortified with brandy before have a good idea how much to put into a gallon of wine?
Thanks for any suggestions!!!
And if you've got a suggestion for what to add to the other four gallons, I'm all ears!!! We're thinking about blueberries, cherries, honey, brandy and maybe one of them with actual pear fruit but we're not set on anything so suggest away!
