Tonight it my first bottle of elderberry, made with concentrate from homewinery.com. Started in December, 2014 and bottled in April, 2015. In addition to the standard kit, I added 1 American medium stick and 1 oz French medium chips.
This is my first non grape wine (other than a batch of dragon blood) so I wasn't sure what to expect. I'm really happy with the result of this. After back sweetening, I only ended up with a SG of .994 so it is still quite dry but I love the flavors. This is a terrific social wine and one that you can drink all night long without much chance of getting hammered. I like that. My notes say starting SG was only 1.080 so it is fairly low alcohol. I'll definitely do this again.

On Sunday we had girlfriends parents over for dinner, her dad was part of our first wine making last year. So I opened a bottle of our Cabernet, he along with my girlfriend and her mom enjoyed it. It is now 14 months old and just in the past 3 months I have seen such an improvement in it.
I only have 7 bottles left, so I need to squirrel some of this away for another 6 - 12 months.
