This is Cru Orchard Breezin' Brand (Mist Wines)
New Name for Raspberry White Zinfandel is Rockin' Raspberry Rose
The wine kit has been renamed for business reasons. I have the old style labels with the "CRU" brand stamp which I prefer to use.
Summer is coming and I'm going to start making several fruit wines including some mist wines.
5-6% ABV is too low for me so I want to fortify this. I've heard many say they add sugar so the result will be 9 ABV , some say 12 ABV. I would prefer 11-12% but I heard some say the taste retains best at 9 ABV.
Any opinion on this?
Generally I prefer higher ABV, I mean what's the use of drinking unless you are drinking? I don't see the point of making expensive fruit juice unless it's got a kick - and I don't drink that much oh well I didn't before I started making wines .
I noticed in a review here there is also some split opinion on whether to add the F-pack completely at the end or to split it and add half at the half-way point?
Any opinion on this as well?
I got a tablet now and I will go take some snaps of the kit later tonight and post it or attach to this post.
Cheers.
