I like to brew wine; It's only a hobby but I'm obsessed!
This is the place to be if you want to see what another brewer is up to or want some encouragement to start or diversify. I've posted heaps of recipes (clicky) and 2 wine-making vids (here for wine made from cartons of juice blog / youtube, and here for Blackberry wine on the pulp blog / youtube).
If you're new here then do explore, take this link for tips about where to find what you're interested in.

Young's Black Cherry (Definitive Country)

There are some kit's that are great because you pay the money for them, and there are some cheap and cheerful kit's too. Young's do a range of definitive country wines. My personal favourite is the Black Cherry. I like others such as blackberry but I much prefer to forage for them. Ever tried foraging cherries?

There's not much to say about this wine. It is very easy drinking and red. Usually turns out medium. The kit comes with everything you need except sugar. And costs around £7 - 8. Give it a few months and it'll be nice, drinking it sooner is not worth it because a little patience makes for a big improvement.


So you know what it looks like.

If you want to drink stuff early, like 6-8 weeks after starting brewing it, then take the link to my brew list and check out the "quickie" wines. They'll either be called "quickie" or will have a "Q" to identify them. You'll get a bottle of table wine quality. Not bad for about 30-40p per bottle and a 6-8 week wait.
