    Which yeast should I use in a blackberry/blueberry wine

    I have rc-212 and Lalvin 71B-1122. Would one be better than the other? It is a 50/50 mix of blueberries and blackberries. Thanks!

    RJ Spagnols CC Winery Series vs En Primeur Grape Packs

    After three winery series red kits with their luscious, jammy grape packs I was disappointed upon opening my En Primeur Shiraz and finding a small bag of dried skins. I was also disappointed in the small amt of oak shavings, and EC1118 yeast. For a higher end and more expensive kit it was...

    RJ Spagnols Aging En Primeur and Cru Select wines

    I also purchased higher quality corks rather than the agglomerated corks. They're rated for longer storage.

    RJ Spagnols Grand Cru Intenational S African Chenin Blanc

    I started this kit in Feb 2015 and bottled yesterday. Last night I drank the incomplete 3/4 bottle and it was great! I bought this kit on a whim to have some white on hand for guests as I typically drink red. I was pleasantly surprised! Especially as this was a 12L/4 week kit. I highly recommend...

    How many days before I remove blackberries from primary?

    How many days should I wait to remove blackberries from primary? They are frozen/thawed but not macerated. Should it be no more than four days, similar to raspberries, to avoid bitterness from the seeds? Thanks!
