Hey everyone,
I'm looking to try and replicate a wine that my family loves which is:
Echo Falls - Merlot, ripe plums & blueberries.
I think the best way to do this is to purchase a California Connoisseur - Merlot wine kit, then add my own plums and blueberries whilst I'm fermenting.
So I believe the process should be:
Make the merlot wine using the kit and instructions as normal. Before adding the yeast, either:
A) Add crushed blueberries and plums to the fermentor.
B) Place plums and blueberries inside a nylon mesh bag and leave in the fermentor.
Then add pectolase, yeast and continue with fermentation process as normal.
Do think there's any other steps I need to add to this and also when adding the fruit, should I go with option A or B?
Thanks.
