I thought I would post this in here since this section is about recipes. This recipe is for a batch of spiced mulled wine. It comes out of the bottle ready to warm up and enjoy on those cold fall and winter days. It is based off a local wine that I enjoy but wanted to duplicate and make my own. Here is the recipe and process
Ingredients
6 Gallons of Red Wine (I used Wine Expert Zinfandel Cabernet)
2 oz Orange Extract
2 oz Ground Cinnamon
2 oz Nutmeg
2 oz All Spice
2 tbl Cardamom
5 whole cloves (DO NOT USE GROUND CLOVE OR MORE WHOLE CLOVES!)
6 cup Sugar (more or less to taste)
Process
Primary Fermentation (10 days or until you reach desired gravity)
Rack wine
Add all Spice ingredients except the sugar (sugar comes into play later).
Start Secondary Fermentation and flavoring (Let sit 10 days)
Rack wine and check gravity
Stabilize and clarify wine
After clearing add sugar to sweeten
let sit a day or two and check sweetness (add more sugar if needed)
(This wine needs to be balanced as far as sweetness goes. If it is too dry it wont taste as good warmed up.)
filter wine and bottle
Note:This wine will clog the filters. I went through 2 filters doing this wine.
