Mixture of Grape / Blackberry

[Danny]

Bought a house a number of years back that has 3 red-type grapevines in the side yard (not sure what variety). Have never made anything other than jelly with the grapes, but would like to try a blend of this grape with blackberries that I also harvested this year in my yard. Make blackberry just about every year, but thought a combination this year would might make a nice change of pace.
Does anyone have a recipe or experience mixing grapes / blackberries?

I would ferment them separately and blend to taste later myself. Much better chance of making what you want or even make 2 different blends like 60/40 & 70/30 or something.

I agree with wade completely. Blending after is almost always the best way to go.

Thanks. Have never blended, but sounds like this is the place to start. Will give it a try.

Blend it. I do a Blackberry / Red muscadine wine blend and it is great.
