I have a recipe for Apple Jack wine that is pretty simple. My question is that I noticed on another thread(I believe Ghetto wine) that someone had mentioned without the use of chemicals, it could not stay bottled for very long.
6c sugar
2 containers of apple juice concentrate
1/4tsp cinnamon
1/8tsp nutmeg
1/4tsp yeast-champagne Red Star
Combine all, but yeast, and add to gallon carboy. Then add in yeast and stir well. Place stopper/airlock on and it will take 30-60 days.
When time to bottle this, is it necessary to add chemicals, etc. to have the wine last for over a year, etc.? The person that made the recipe stated they used no chemicals or clearing agents.
Thanks for the help. This looks tasty.
