Vernsgal, how did the coffee merlot turn out? Sounds yummy.
Jericurl, glad the yeast did it's thing. I really like D47, but it is sloooowww.
Stressbaby, that wine sounds fabulous. I grow the only variety of passion fruit that is hardy here, maypops. I bet those fruits will bring a nice layer of flavor to some of my tropical fruit wines I'll be making down the road.
Right now I'm drinking some cranapple I made 7-8 months ago. All concentrate plus some vanilla to kick up the flavor. Somehow the vanilla is almost tasting like a tannin, and the wonderful berry is coming thru like this is a Cabernet Sauvignon. Ok, I freely admit I am a white wine girl, but cab Sav is the only red I actually like. Still, wanted to state that I am not an expert on it, so I am probably way off base, but I am really happy with my cranapple.
