Although this post was about a year and 1/2 ago, I found it interesting
to make and try the win
It was easy to make and very good if you like a sweet wine. I would
like to make it
less sweet without making it taste too yeasty. I tried to reply to Mr.
Orr's
orignial message but the email was returned. would like help from the
group on
how to make the faux wine but make it less sweet. Hope you can help.

I'm not a learned winemaking scolar and I don't know much about wine
making
chemistry but I make what I call a "faux" wine. I call it that because I
don't
use juice.
1 gal water
4 cups sugar
3 caps lemon concentrate
3 caps cherry extract
1 package yeast, disolved

Mix in a stainless steel container and place in a 1 gallon jug with relief
valve
tube. Allow to ferment for 28 days and then siphon off 3/4 inch above
bottom
(above dead yeast) (I use a copper tube I special made for this purpose).
Wash
out gallon jug and put wine back in jug. Install relief valve tube.
Allow to
set and clarify for 8 days. Siphon off 3/4 inch above bottom. and bottle.
You
can drink it then or allow it to age in the bottle. Makes 2 quarts of
wine.
