So I did my first peach wine with 1118.
I am a little disappointed but feel it might change with time and age as it develops and I like its characteristics.
I kept adding sugar but no bang-in-your-face peach taste developed. So I stopped adding sugar prior to bottling.
What it tastes like to me is actually a Sichel Sauternes with a slight twist of peach at the finish. The initial taste is what I do not like, this tastes of alcohol and almost an aspartame taste. I feel with age the alcohol and sugars will develop more and turn into something love.
