Ok, so here's the deal.. I never make anything myself that isn't pretty much dry. I'm just not a fan of sweet wine, and neither is my better half. Since I know we won't drink it, I just don't make it. (I'm sweet enough already... I like my wine like my women, red, mature and well rounded... etc. etc..)
A member of the family likes sweet stuff.. I've occasionally fed them what I know to be decent bottles of real commercial reislings that I have purchased - a good 20 to 25 dollar bottle, and they've really enjoyed them. We're not talking orchard mist koolaid or cheap libfraumilch, but good stuff. I'm contemplating making something for a christmas present.
Where I live I can get all the "major" kit vendors between a couple of LHBS's - I unfortunately can't really get anything other than kits - but Wine Expert, all the Vineco brands, and all the RJS stuff is regularly available.
Those of you that like the sweeter style whites - What kits have you had your best success with? Got some suggestions for me?
