Welcome Eddy, Im not far from you here in Ct. What are you gonna start with?

Well right now I have the Ancient Orange mead going, and I just put welch's white grape into a secondary.

I really would like to start a sweet wine. Any suggestions? Also I'm curious about elderberries(sp?) I've heard they are the closest thing to grapes? Is that true?

 

[Wade E]

Are you talking kit or fruit wine as any wine can be sweetened back. If your looking to do a sweet kit try an Island mist or if you really want sweet go with an Ice Wine kit!

 

[edenri]

No I'm looking for a fruit wine. I understand the results of a kit can be great, but I really feel like I'm missing something with a kit, plus I'm trying to do one gallon batches right now. Do they make kits for one gallon batches?

 

[Wade E]

No they dont, but they do make 3 gallon kits.
