Strawberry wine...

[Droc]

I was wondering has anyone ever tried making a straight strawberry wine with strawberries from the frozen food section? I was in between jobs and missed out on the harvest this year and was thinking this might be a good alternative.

Hi,

I'm making my first straight strawberry 2 gallon batch now. Primary fermentation started, pitched last night after adjusting acids.

Original SG: 1.075
Tartaric Acids: 0.60%
Yeast: EC 1118

Additions:

Tannin
Energizer
Nutrient
Kmeta
Pectic enzyme
Acid blend
No toast: French white oak chips
Medium Toast: French white oak chips

We will see how this turns out. Who knows.....

6 months to 1 year. Depends on how sweet and acid levels
