My current wine is in the racking and clearing stage. I bought some Cabernet juice to add to my 2 gallons of merlot to make a bordeaux. I have one gallon of Cabernet juice left. Any suggestions like adding other types of fruit for a dinner wine? Go crazy, I like to experiment.
 
You could get a xan of Vintners harvest wine base and make a Blackberry Cab.
 
I was talking about that very thing last night with shop owner. Then she told me of several places to buy grapes that are very close to me. Buying the crushed grapes and buying the juice are about the same price, but the juice would be less work. I can get an Australian Syrah kit for $80 or Syrah grapes crushed for $1 a pound. 4 gal of blackberry juice is about the same price. I am definitely planting more vines next spring.
 
I have confirmed with the local grower to get 4 gal of crushed Syrah. 4 gal Syrah + 1 gal Cabernet = 5 gal of SyrNet right? That is what I will label it as.
