I've been opening some of my 09 wines. I'm feelin' a bit of pride and cockiness. All this brewing stuff really works! Here are the results so far:
Red Clover: very strong, more like rocket fuel. clear and thick. Not sure I like the taste.
Red Currant: Beautiful color and clarity, a bit medium but no special taste to it.
Strawberry: Deeeelicious but a bit too sweet. Clarity, color and aroma are nice.
Strawberry Lime: Yuk! Lime is just too overpowering. Who cares about the color!
Elderflower: Absolutely gorgeous bouquet, color, taste and alcohol content. A bit on the sweet side but will try to lessen it this year.
Elderberry: Gorgeous color and body but it has a bit of an after taste. Not sure if it is tannins or what. Perhaps it needs to age more.
Plum: Got moldy while in the demi.
Dry Cherry: Gorgeous color and clarity but not to nice to the taste.
Sweet Cherry: Same as above.
Please feel free to comment and teach me from your experience. Thanks!
